Hi Tom,
It sounds like your keyboard is not a PC bios type keyboard. The USB
keyboard interface on the SVGA only works with this type of keyboard. Most
PC USB keyboards are this type and will work with the P3/SVGA. I am
currently using a wireless Logitech K360 which works great.
I have a USB keyboard that I use with my WIN XP laptop that works just fine
with the laptop but my P3 doesn't recognize the keyboard. How do you tell the
difference between a PC bios type and a non-PC bios type?

A BIOS-based keyboard doesn't take any special device driver, and it
is recognized by the BIOS at the time a PC boots up (rather than
later, after its device driver is loaded by the operating system). The
P3 requires this type of keyboard because it isn't designed to support
non-mainstream I/O

Maybe I am mistaken but I think I heard of a USB Keyboard option for the
SVGA/FFT board coming from Elecraft. I use all indoor antennas so RFi is
pretty much a constant struggle with interconnect cabling like keyboards.

My understanding is that the USB option for the SVGA board is that it

With indoor antennas, I would not want to be in the high RF level
present with 500 watts. You may be OK, but I would run the numbers
for the RF exposure limits present at 500 watts given the close
proximity to your antennas.

Hi Jim,
Those inexpensive adapters are passive signal converters, there is no
changing of the PS/2 keyboard protocol to USB going on in there. Currently
the P3/SVGA board does not support PS/2 keyboards.

Rick, why would expanding to PSK63 require access to a PC? I would assume
there is more than enough signal processing within the P3 and K3 to deal
with that -- but maybe that wasn't the original intent (to do more work in
the P3). Clearly if an external PC is required that would defeat the

adding other modes to the K3 later.

There is no additional signal processing being done on the P3/SVGA to
support other digital modes. The P3/SVGA USB Keyboard is just that, a

Hi Paul,
I do a lot of digital modes. having a keyboard PSK31 and RTTY interface
would be a nice complement to the K3 CW paddle interface. Being able to

match for me.
Mostly I run much more robust modes as part of NBEMS.

Hi Tony,
Yes, in order to use the USB keyboard on the P3 you will need to install the
SVGA option. The SVGA board has the USB port. Once installed, a USB
keyboard can then be plugged in directly. Nothing else is needed.

Hi John,
Yes of course, CW is included!
It's probably not a good idea to keep talking about the USB keyboard as
some sort of 'datamode' option for the P3/SVGA. It really is just a
keyboard that can be plugged into the P3, and then the P3/SVGA becomes a
data terminal much like how the K3
