I have just loaded the latest firmware.
The NR is certainly different and appears to be a big improvement although at aggressive settings the audio output is very attenuated. There is another effect which doesn't seem to have been published. That is the maximum output that can be set by the power control is now 110 watts instead of 120 watts. Has anyone else noticed this or is it confined to my K3 ? 73 Barry Simpson VK2BJ ______________________________________________________________ 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 |
Barry,
The power dropped to 110W with the previous public beta I think, in the interest of spectral purity as I recall. 73 Stephen G4SJP K3 #980 On 13/08/2009 12:10, "Barry Simpson" <[hidden email]> wrote: > > I have just loaded the latest firmware. > > > > The NR is certainly different and appears to be a big improvement although > at aggressive settings the audio output is very attenuated. > > > > There is another effect which doesn't seem to have been published.

Barry, the power level was dropped to 110 some time ago.
Also, F3-4 and F4-4 are for instances of high signal ratio and noise; i.e. strong S9+ signals with high noise levels. It is still recommended to Use F1 and F2 settings for the best results. 73 de James K2QI On Thu, Aug 13, 2009 at 7:10 AM, Barry Simpson <[hidden email]>wrote: > I have just loaded the latest firmware. > > > > The NR is certainly different and appears to be a big improvement although > at aggressive settings the audio output is very attenuated. > > > > There is another effect which doesn't seem to have been published.

Actually it was published in the Firmware release notes...
