Re: [Elecraft] K3 displayed power out is incorrect

Hi Gary; Look in from with the top off at the RF board where the KAT3 or KANT3 board plugs in. Check T4 for darkening, it gets cooked if DC is applied to the antenna connector (like a remote preamp power connected backwards or similar). You mentioned a remote tuner? Does it get power up the

Re: [Elecraft] K3 displayed power out is incorrect

Hi Gary, The K3 computes forward and reflected power from samples taken in the SWR bridge circuit. A Tif X Gain calibration could fail because the forward power reading is incorrect due to a failure in that portion of the SWR bridge circuit. Do you have the KAT3 ATU in your K3? If so, be sure

[Elecraft] K3 displayed power out is incorrect

During operation with a home-brew mag-loop antenna, my K3 (#1222) dropped power to just under 50W (by the display).  There had been an occasional arc in the external loop tuner, so I'm assuming that was the cause of the K3 failure.  Subsequently, running the 50W TX Gain Calibration, some bands

Re: [Elecraft] K3 - Erratic receive

+1 for what Brian, K0DTJ suggested! The front panel buttons use a similar voltage divider with a multiplexed A/D converter to determine which button has been depressed. 73, Mike, K8CN __ Elecraft mailing list Home:

Re: [Elecraft] K3 - Erratic receive

According to the schematics, those two double pots on the front panel are merely voltage dividers. They provide 0 to 5v signals to the front panel MCU which controls the function, eg: AF_GAIN. It’s possible the pot has developed a dropout right at the point where you usually set the AF level.

[Elecraft] K3 - Erratic receive

My 2400-serial number K3 has begun to have a sporadic receive problem, which has gotten much worse recently.  It's really weird. What happens is this - the receiver sporadically loses most of its audio output level, until I move the AF pot a couple of degrees either way, at which point it

[Elecraft] [K3] Spinning VFO B very quickly shuts down K3

Here's a problem that I'm curious if anyone else can reproduce it. I'm running K3 firmware 5.66. If I spin the VFO B knob *really* fast in either direction, the radio shuts down. (On rare occasions it will hang and require power supply shutdown to turn it off.) I highly doubt it, but just in

Re: [Elecraft] K3 KAT3 usage

Hi Paul, I would first check that the KAT3 is still enabled. Use the CONFIG menu to scroll through until you see the KAT3 status. I find sometimes that if my finger lingers too long on the ATU TUNE button, it causes the ATU to go into BYPASS mode, i.e. the ATU is not inline. It should show

[Elecraft] K3 KAT3 usage

If I remember correctly, when an ATU tune up is requested from the front panel of a K3 equipped with a KAT3, once the tune up is completed, the final SWR is flashed to the screen? The reason I ask is that my K3 seems to have stopped doing this - even with a dummy load connected. If I hold
