During the WPX RTTY contest this weekend I have noticed that my K3 will jump
from AFSK A to PSK D. It happens whenever I change bands. I know it happens at other times but did not note the circumstances during the contest. Anyone else notice this? Any ideas? Other than this my K3-P3/N1MM/MMTTY configuration works great. With the P3 I did not even have to have the phones on just watched and tuned to the scope display. I only got a couple of hundred Q's. It was not a serious effort and I just picked low hanging fruit ;o} 73 Joe K2UF No trees were harmed in the sending of this e-mail; however, many electrons were inconvenienced. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |
Joe,
The mode/submode are per band settings. If you did not have your Data Mode set to AFSK-A fo all bands that you would be operating using AFSK, then the results are as to be expected. In other words, preset the mode and submode prior to a contest. 73, Don W3FPR On 2/13/2011 10:32 PM, Joe wrote: > During the WPX RTTY contest this weekend I have noticed that my K3 will jump > from AFSK A to PSK D.

In addition if you use M0-M9 as quick band change memories, the data sub-mode is stored/recalled from those memories. You probably need to update the memories for each band. 73, ...

I think you'll find that "Digital mode info" is stored with the 'Band'.
Also, as you get setup for a contest, go thru the bands you'll be using and select the mode, and press "A>B" twice and it will set the freq and mode info on "B" same as "A". Much easier when later you need to go 'split', this step will be done and you won't get err msg when trying to go split. This is for K3 without "Sub-receiver". With KRX3, "I know nothing"! ...bill nr4c -----Original Message----- From: Joe [mailto:[hidden email]] Sent: Sunday, February 13, 2011 10:32 PM To: [hidden email] Subject: [Elecraft] AFSK -> PSK problem During the WPX RTTY contest this weekend I have noticed that my K3 will jump from AFSK A to PSK D.
