K3 Band Data

Jan Erik Holm
Is the K3 band data compatible with Yaesu (ex:FT1000D)
BCD band data. Looks to me that it is, or?

RE: K3 Band Data

Joe Subich, W4TV-3

The BCD encoding is the same as the FT-1000D/FT-2000.

Interfacing to a microHAM or TopTen Band Decoder requires
no internal modification (both products include pull-up
resistors on their BCD inputs).  The Elecraft KRC-2 and
W9XT Band Decoders do not have pull-up resistors and will
require the addition of 2.2 - 10K resistors in the decoder
or on the KIO3 board as documented in the Negative ALC
Mod bulletin.

Thanks to AD5X and W4TV. I know exactly now.

Not true of the KRC2 IF you are using the AuxBus line.  I have the K3 ACCY AuxBus connected to the KRC2 and it
works great.  No changes needed.

The question was specifically with respect to BCD output -
not Aux Bus.  Neither the microHAM Band Decoder not Station
Master require any modification (or care about the BCD
coding) if the serial (CAT) data is used for band decoding
but that wasn't the question that Jan asked.    

Another respondent mentioned an specific band decoding device
from one vendor.  My response was to provide the data about
the other available products that Jan was likely to be using
as well as get the full information into the archives so
another person searching for the same information in two or
three years from now was not left to wonder about compatibility
with devices other than one specific product.

73,

Yes and that was my intent as well....to provide options.  That's why the IF was capitalized.  :)
