K3 RTTY-CW Help
Locked
 
|
I have a new K3. I very much like the quality of this radio but it is over
my non-technical head. Are there step-by-step instructions that would tell me how to configure the radio for RTTY using MMTTY software? I am also looking for easy to follow instructions to configure CW using CWDecoder software? Thank you.

Check out K5NDs link above. He shows a simple schematic for a RTTY (FSK) interface and the setting for the K3, N1MM, and MMTTY. 73 de Bruce, N7TY White Plains, MD -----Original Message----- From: Elecraft [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of Steve Lett Sent: Friday, December 26, 2014 13:18 To: [hidden email] Subject: [Elecraft] K3 RTTY-CW Help I have a new K3.

Steve: I too am a new owner of a k3 kit and just got it going couple of weeks ago. You will enjoy this radio. I too will be looking at N1MM, etc so can operate via keyboard part of the time during contests. In the meantime, regarding RTTY, why don't you try using your CW paddle to send and the readout on your K3 panel (VFO B area) to receive the RTTY first. You will not need any added equipment. Here's how to do it roughly: 1. Read pages 31 and 32 on your owner's manual. Here's a bit of the text: "You don't need a computer to get started with data modes on the K3: it can receive and display RTTY and PSK31 on its LCD screen. You can transmit in data modes using your keyer paddle (see page 34). 2. I made my first contact with a W1AW/x station last weekend - and it was a split connection at that - way cool, that is, I transmitted UP 1 kHz per his CQ call. 3. Doing this experiment will really enhance/check your code sending too. Use the TEST mode and practice sending code in the above mode and check in the LCD (vfo b area) that your ending is accurate enough for the K3 to decode what you send in RTTY. The K3 converts that CW internally and transmits the RTTY for you. You'll improve your code and make your first RTTY contact in the same experiment!

Line out from K3 to Tascam line in. Line in from K3 to Tascam line out or headphones. Only connection from Tascam to computer is USB.
My experience with Tascam was you MUST update both Tascam driver and Tascam firmware from Tascam web site before it will work properly. 73 Eric WD6DBM Jorge Diez - CX6VM <[hidden email]> wrote: >Peter > >I have it working now, thanks > >But I connected LINE IN and OUT from K3, directly to my computer, and is transmitting > >So the problem I have with the TASCAM US-144 MKII is that I don´t know where to connect this cables on it :-) > >I have them connected to LINE IN and PHONES (that use 3.5mm connectors) but didn´t TX > >So now if someone that use TASCAM that can help me to know where to connect the cables > >Thanks, >Jorge >CX6VM/CW5W > >-----Mensaje original----- >De: Peter Eijlander (PA0PJE) [mailto:[hidden email]] >Enviado el: sábado, 27 de diciembre de 2014 11:27 a.m. >Para: Jorge Diez - CX6VM; [hidden email] >Asunto: Re: [Elecraft] K3 RTTY-CW Help > >Try this one, Jorge, > >http://www.n3me.net/pdf%20files/MMTTY%20v1.68A%20and%20Elecraft%20K3%20Setup%20with%20Lenovo.pdf > >Otherwise you could just use >http://www.n3me.net/pdf%20files/ >and pick the file you want to use. > >Dell was no longer there in the file name... that why it didn't work. > >73, >Peter - PA0PJE > >Op 2014-12-27 14:04 schreef Jorge Diez - CX6VM: >> <a href="http://www.n3me.net/pdf%20files/MMTTY%20v1.68A%20and%20Elecraft%20K3%2">http://www.n3me.net/pdf%20files/MMTTY%20v1.68A%20and%20Elecraft%20K3%2 >> 0Setup %20With%20Dell%20&%20Lenovo%20Computers.pdf > > >--- >Este mensaje no contiene virus ni malware porque la protección de avast!

There are two ways -- VOX or via an additional serial port? I use VOX. To use VOX is pretty easy. Set levels according to my applications note. http://k9yc.com/USB_Interfaces.pdf Set the K3 for AFSK-A. Set the RTTY tones in MMTTY and the K3 to the same frequency, and make sure both are set to 45 baud. In MMTTY, select your Tascam sound card for both TX and RX. Also, in the MMTTY Options Tab, select left or right channel for RX, depending on which channel the radio feeds. Feed audio from the Tascam to the Line Input. Follow instructions in the K3 manual to set the Line Input control. The Mic Gain becomes the Line Input control in digital modes. To set the VOX, put MMTTY in TX mode (send anything) and adjust the VOX gain until the K3 goes into TX. This is not exactly step by step, but it covers most the things that can prevent you from transmitting. :) 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ 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 Message delivered to [hidden email] |
