K3 - Minor question
Locked
 
|
Just noticed this tonight.
The No Cal NTS net is on 3533.000 As I tuned the rx up, at that exact frequency, the background noise changed ... I sounded like some of the highs went away. Continuing up in freq, at 3533.100, it reverted to what it sounds like below 3533.000 There is nothing on the P3 that looks different. P3 is in fixed tune mode. FW version is 4.39. Just curious, it's not a problem. 73, Fred K6DGW - Northern California Contest Club - CU in the 2012 Cal QSO Party 6-7 Oct 2012 - www.cqp.org ______________________________________________________________ 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 |

Have you used the birdie removal feature? It has that effect.

Fred, did you happen to tune across a frequency where you had earlier
removed a birdie with SIG RMV? That causes the passband to jog a bit and you can hear it in the sound of the noise, especially at narrow bandwidths. Tune across it again slowly and watch the P3 carefully. Sometimes you can see the birdie come flying across the P3 at you and "tunnel" through your passband. It's pretty cool when you see it. 73, Carl WS7L > -----Original Message----- > The No Cal NTS net is on 3533.000 As I tuned the rx up, at > that exact > frequency, the background noise changed ...

I can't tell any difference on the signals, but then, this *is* CW, not much to change on my end. 73, Fred K6DGW - Northern California Contest Club - CU in the 2012 Cal QSO Party 6-7 Oct 2012 - www.cqp.org ______________________________________________________________ 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 |

So far as I know, I've never removed a birdie. I don't know how to do
it, so if I did, it was unintentional and accidental ... not totally unheard of for me. :-) I'm usually a sucker for anything that someone describes as "pretty cool" but so far I haven't seen anything like that on the P3 :-( 73, Fred K6DGW - Northern California Contest Club - CU in the 2012 Cal QSO Party 6-7 Oct 2012 - www.cqp.org On 4/4/2012 10:34 PM, Carl Clawson wrote: > Fred, did you happen to tune across a frequency where you had earlier > removed a birdie with SIG RMV?

Yes. To undo any birdie removal for the band you are on, select SIG RMV in the menu and
then tap CLR. On 4/5/2012 4:18 PM, Fred Jensen wrote: > On 4/4/2012 10:27 PM, Vic K2VCO wrote: >> Have you used the birdie removal feature?

I set it to zero, all is well. I may not update my firmware again, it already seems to think faster than I do :-) 73, Fred K6DGW - Northern California Contest Club - CU in the 2012 Cal QSO Party 6-7 Oct 2012 - www.cqp.org ______________________________________________________________ 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 |
