Ham Radio Deluxe TOR vs RTTY
Locked
 
|
Question for HRD experts. When operating RTTY with the K3 (FSK D) and
using HRD for the logging program, HRD puts TOR in the mode slot in the Add logbook entry window. Have to go into the log and modify the mode to change it to RTTY. Is there a way to fix that in HRD?

Hi,
Yes - you can change the mode, also you can stop HRD from automatically filling in the mode. To edit the log either double-click on an entry *or* use the Bulk Edit option.

I had two K3s and three laptops, plus all the cables, trackballs, etc. in my
carry-on luggage. Rose Kopp put some mods on the two K3 cases she made for me so they could be attached to one another and carried with one strap so the airline folks count it as "one" piece. My other carry-on luggage piece is a roll-about computer bag. I tried running the dual K3 bag through the security X-ray machine and it overloaded the operator. So, we had to run each K3 through by itself. But when done individually, I've never had them ask about it. Most of the X-ray ops ID a K3 as a slide projector, which is fine with me.

I've taken my K3 as carry-on through numerous airports, without fail, it always gets looked at, swabbed, and then they let me go...I guess I have the thug look or something.

I went to Bonaire NA and participated with the PJ4E Group in the 2008
CQWWSSB Contest. I took my K3 and accessories in a hard-shell "Porter" brand carry-on case. This is a excellent case, has wheels and handle for pulling along, and it will fold down to accommodate other cases to be on top as you pull it along. Great for having to go from one end of the airport to another for your gate. I beforehand took it to a place who foamed to fit all pieces in the case. I found not too much difference in the US airports than the airports in the Caribbean. Some asked what it was, some had enough experience to know or ask if it was Ham Radio equip. It was dusted once on return to Miami. I was told that was because I failed to place it in a rubber tub alone that time. Go figure. However, the airport security people in all cases were polite. The biggest hassle for me was to unload all the gear into the separate tubs, and as well my personal items, trying not to hold up the line behind me. But the way the world is now, it is a necessary thing in order to protect us. My K3 performed magnificently in the contest.

So, some thoughts please. If I take my K3 in carry-on, should I remove
it from the carry on and place in a tray and explain what it is? Going from England (Gatwick) to France (Toulouse) just before xmas, it took my family 1 hour to get through security - they were checking everything - take of boots with high heels, belts of any kind, close search after you'd gone though the scanner, checking bags the lot. Coming out of France was much the same, except no queue. 73 de M0XDF, K3 #174 -- Why should I fear death? If I am, death is not. If death is, I am not.

I travelled internationally with my K3 back in 2007 as carryon. I
had the K3, power supply and some cables in a case that fit under the seat. No questions asked, nothing removed or demonstrated. I have also travelled internationally with my KX1, no questions asked. Just remove the batteries as I think that there is some restriction on carryon batteries or something like that. Plus, you don't want it to go on accidentally.

Thanks all for the responses- pretty much as I thought. I can see me
doing something to fit out my STD carry on bag so I can carry the K3, it's (small) SMPSU and a few other bits and pieces and figure out how to make that easy to unpack etc. 73 de M0XDF, K3 #174 -- Everything secret degenerates, even the administration of justice; nothing is safe that does not show how it can bear discussion and publicity. -Lord Acton, historian (1834-1902) On 2 Jan 2009, at 13:04, Robert Naumann wrote: > David, > > The short answer is: yes. > > Anything electronic should be taken out and placed into a tray - > alone - so > they can see and not fear it.

Hello David, others ....
There have been several who have purchased one of Rose's K2 or K3 bags that do place them inside other baggage. There is a Pelican case that is almost a perfect fit for a K3 in it's bag. Her first carry case was made specifically to fit inside another piece of carry-on luggage and there were no straps or handles on it. 73!

David,
I've taken my K3 to Aruba several times. I put it in my backpack cushioned with bubble wrap and maybe a towel or some clothing. I just put the backpack on the conveyor belt to start with. I sometimes have to remove it for separate handling (only at SFO) and sometimes not. But no one has ever asked any questions about it or thought it to be suspicious. 73, andy, ae6y ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Ferrington, M0XDF" <[hidden email]> To: <[hidden email]> Sent: Friday, January 02, 2009 3:54 AM Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 in Carry-on Luggage > So, some thoughts please.
