K3 and N1MM

Hi all,

today I tried with my 2-weeks old K3 and N1MM all the contest-settings
need for the comming Phone-CQWW. With the funktion-keys I can send a
sound to the K3 but then is the microphon dead or vice-versa. Is there
any way to use the mic and the line-input together?

I have a K3 with all options except the transvertermodul.

Any ideas?

Karlfried,

I believe the best solution is to connect a microphone to the computer
soundcard and use N1MM to pipe that audio to the radio.

Post this to the N1MM list. I use the Microham MK2R+ or the Microkeyer
to provide the interface for the audio/computer etc.

If you do not want to use an external interface or route the microphone
through the computer sound card - and don't mind the mic being live
while the N1MM voice messages are playing - set MENU:MIC+LINE = ON,

Check the K3 manual for details.

YES. I've done this since getting my first K3. it works VERY well, and
I do a LOT of contesting. As Don and Joe have said, study the Elecraft
manual to understand how to set levels for both mic and computer playback.

Also see my Ham Interfacing tutorial for advice on how to get very clean
audio to and from your sound card for both SSB and RTTY using nothing
more than properly wired cables.

Right. This is simple and straightforward, and I suspect this is the way
most guys have it set up. Joe's right that the mic is live, so if you have a
headset boom mic you just have to remember not to clear your throat or
whatever, but it's very convenient and it takes full advantage of the
Elecraft design that avoids the need for an interface.
