Is it just me or ......

k0wa@swbell.net


Really folks....I am getting more and more behind the curve here with the K3 and all the updates.

What is working?

What is not working?

Or...maybe I should ask....

What is working for some people and not for others?

I am rather confused as to where we are with the K3 firmware.  I know a lot of people want AM and FM and all the bells and whistles up to light frequencies, but what about just good old SSB, and CW (maybe PSK31 and RTTY)

Sorting through the "firmware" upgrade data sheets seems to be fruitless for me because I cannot keep track of all the changes.  Not Elecraft's problem, but what do you do to keep track of it all.  Quite frankly, I am a bit overwhelmed with it all.

Maybe there could be a post as to what is on the list to fix....and why were are fixing it?

Or...maybe there could be a post as to what is broken and why it was broken and that it is being fixed.

I guess I am a little dull today trying to sort this all out.

No, it's not just you. Count me in as well. I am in the same boat as you. I don't care that much about AM and FM although I do ultimately want it, but I do want SSB to work at full power. I am also worried that the extension down to 200Hz is just waisting power that contributes very little to getting heard. If anything  I would want the total transmit bandwidth to be reduced to 2400Hz (300-2700Hz) which is pretty well the standard filter bandwidth for a fixed no-DSP transceiver with just one filter. But as I said earlier today, to please everybody these things need to be configurable. And this got to be the top priority at Elecraft.
