K3 KX3 running winmor

John Hendricks-2
I run Winmor on my K3 & KX3 and find it very frustrating that Winmor resets the mode back to SSB with each automatic frequency change. I need the mode to be set to DATA A so that the compression & Equalizers are disabled, ALC is optimized, and for the K3 the rear panel connectors are enabled. Are there other Winmor user that would like to see the WL2K development group make some changes to fix this problem?

Re: K3 KX3 running winmor

I know that it's "best practice" to use DATA A mode for digital, but I use
Winmor all the time in SSB mode and don't run into any problems.  I don't
even bother turning off the compression and EQ, either.  Have you tried it
this way, and if so what has your experience been?

If you're using Winmor through RMS Express, go into Rig Configuration in a
Winmor session.  Make sure you have selected "Elecraft K3/KX3" and select
"USB Digital" as the mode.  Make sure you have the most current version;
there was a version a couple of months ago that didn't distinguish K3 from
K3/KX3, with the result that this commanded LSB on the K3 and KX3.

Hmm... I don't seem to have this issue with my K3. I use RMSExpress and
WINMOR on both amateur bands and MARS frequencies.

Make sure you're running the latest version of RMSExpress and WINMOR.
There was an issue with a version released since the beginning of the
year where the radio would go into USB mode instead of DATA A.

Re: K3 KX3 running winmor

Frank Precissi
I'm running RMSExpress 1.2.27.0 / WINMOR 1.5.7.0 and I'm seeing the same
problem.  It clicks the K3 over to USB mode instead of DATA mode.  USB
Digital is selected in WINMOR setup too.

The bug was reported back in Jan (I believe) and from what I can see it
hasn't been fixed.

Re: K3 KX3 running winmor

Matt Zilmer-3
Rick Muething reported his team would fix this problem "real soon now"
in Feb.

Someone decided that having the "USB Digital" button was a bad idea,
so they removed the option, or broke it.

The solution I use is a workaround.  Wait for the end of the first TX,
then change the mode to DATA A.  I used a macro for this.  The mode is
only set just prior to the first TX.
