ERR TXF

[Jens Køster]

My K3 keys up the first time I press the PTT button on the handmic - then the 2nd time I press it, the message reads: ERR TXF

I´ve read the Error Message List in the manual on page 67:

ERR TXF Invalid transmit crystal filter bandwidth The crystal filter selected for TX (with
CONFIG:FLTX) is either too narrow or
too wide. You must specify a filter that is
2.7 or 2.8 kHz wide for CW/DATA/SSB,
6 kHz for AM, and 13.0 kHz for FM).

I have the factory supplied 2.7 Khz filter and the 250 Hz CW filter installed

I´m not quite sure what that means; could anyone clarify that for me please
TIA

Jens,

Either check the menu or easier yet, use K3 Utility to check the filters
that are enabled for transmit  for each mode.  You should only have the
2.7 kHz filter selected for transmit in CW and SSB modes.

You may add the 250 kHz filter for receive - but not for transmit.
