K3 - AFSK RTTY
Locked
 
|
What would a contest be if everything always worked like it did the last
time in the contest. I use a minimalist RTTY setup: 2 stereo cables from LINE IN/OUT to LINE OUT/IN AFSK-A with PTT from VOX N1MM with one instance of MMTTY Basically, it worked fine, made over 700 Q's. At the urging of the club, I decided on the new SO Unlimited [i.e. assisted], and that worked OK too except: Every time I clicked on a band map spot, the radio went to FSK-D, and of course wouldn't key. I had the couple of usual N1MM lockouts and re-starting N1MM also caused this change to FSK-D. I'm running 4.58 FW, haven't loaded new in a long time, and N1MM is running 13.10.2, also haven't updated that in quite awhile, both have been working very well. I don't think this is a K3 problem, but wanted to check if anyone else using the minimalist configuration has seen this. 73, Fred K6DGW - Northern California Contest Club - CU in the 2014 Cal QSO Party 4-5 Oct 2014 - www.cqp.org Go SF! ______________________________________________________________ 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 |

Here is one thing that will cause a similar problem: If you program a
memory while DATA MD is X, then every time you recall that memory you will be put back into X, regardless of the DATA MD setting prior to the memory recall. You might have set the memory years ago when using FSK D and now are using AFSK A. Use the memory, go directly to FSK D. This bit me several times this weekend. However, I don't see an obvious connection between memory recall and N1MM band map clicking. /Rick On Sun, Jan 5, 2014 at 5:14 PM, Fred Jensen <[hidden email]> wrote: > What would a contest be if everything always worked like it did the last > time in the contest. > > I use a minimalist RTTY setup: > > 2 stereo cables from LINE IN/OUT to LINE OUT/IN > AFSK-A with PTT from VOX > N1MM with one instance of MMTTY > > Basically, it worked fine, made over 700 Q's.

In N1MM -> Config -> Configure Ports, Mode Control, Audi, Other -> Mode Control ... make sure you have set the RTTY mode to *AFSK* and not *RTTY* if you are using AFSK. For more information read the very fine N1MM Logger on-line documentation. 73, ...

Joe... This is great. Thanks for the information. One frustration down in my life.....a couple of million to go. Lee - K0WA In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply. If you don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it. If you can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense. Is Common Sense divine? Common Sense is the image of the Creator expressing revealed truth in my mind. - John W. (Kansas) Never interfere with anything that isn't bothering you. ________________________________ From: "Joe Subich, W4TV" <[hidden email]> To: Elecraft Reflector <[hidden email]>; [hidden email] Sent: Sunday, January 5, 2014 8:50 PM Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 - AFSK RTTY In N1MM -> Config -> Configure Ports, Mode Control, Audi, Other -> Mode Control ... make sure you have set the RTTY mode to *AFSK* and not *RTTY* if you are using AFSK.
