K3DVR vs CW Memories
Locked
 
|
I've read the manuals and searched the archives, but I'm still unclear what benefits, if any, the KDVR3 provides over the built-in CW memories for CW mode.
I'm also unclear how the two interrelate; does the KDVR3 override or replace the CW memories when it is installed, or does it function only in SSB mode?

It only functions in SSB mode it provides no advantage in CW mode
other than the fact that it can record over the air signals... ~Brett (N7MG) On Tue, Aug 3, 2010 at 8:11 PM, Stan Gibbs <[hidden email]> wrote: > > I've read the manuals and searched the archives, but I'm still unclear what > benefits, if any, the KDVR3 provides over the built-in CW memories for CW > mode. > > I'm also unclear how the two interrelate; does the KDVR3 override or replace > the CW memories when it is installed, or does it function only in SSB mode? > > > ----- > 73, Stan - KR7C > -- > View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3DVR-vs-CW-Memories-tp5371027p5371027.html > Sent from the [K3] mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > ______________________________________________________________ > 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 > 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 |

I prefer to use the KDVR for CQ calls and contesting etc. More natural audio
is transmitted than my laptop recordings sound using N1MM...Just my 2 cents worth...keep the change...(:-)) Gary On Wed, Aug 4, 2010 at 1:35 PM, Brett Howard <[hidden email]>wrote: > It only functions in SSB mode it provides no advantage in CW mode > other than the fact that it can record over the air signals... > > ~Brett (N7MG) > > On Tue, Aug 3, 2010 at 8:11 PM, Stan Gibbs <[hidden email]> wrote: > > > > I've read the manuals and searched the archives, but I'm still unclear > what > > benefits, if any, the KDVR3 provides over the built-in CW memories for CW > > mode. > > > > I'm also unclear how the two interrelate; does the KDVR3 override or > replace > > the CW memories when it is installed, or does it function only in SSB > mode? > > > > > > ----- > > 73, Stan - KR7C > > -- > > View this message in context: > http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3DVR-vs-CW-Memories-tp5371027p5371027.html > > Sent from the [K3] mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > ______________________________________________________________ > > 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 > > > ______________________________________________________________ > 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 > -- Gary VK4FD - Motorhome Mobile http://www.qsl.net/vk4fd/ K3 #679 For everything else there's Mastercard!!! ______________________________________________________________ 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 |

The trouble is that you give up all the advantages of N1MM's integration
of logging and message-sending functions, particularly in Enter Sends Messages mode. Setting up laptop-based message files takes more effort, but there's no inherent reason why they should not sound just as good. You need to be sure that all your recorded messages are set to the same peak amplitude, and adjust the various gain controls between the recorded file and the K3, but once they are set you can forget them. One trick that can help is to run your microphone through the sound card to the rig, and set the sound card's microphone gain to provide the same output level as the recorded messages. Then any other gain control changes you make will affect both your mike and the recorded audio. I regularly use soundcard audio files, while simultaneously recording the entire contest using Sagebrush Software's RecAll Pro. I am still working out some kinks with getting the K3's monitor level where I want it, but I'm sure I can get there. 73, Pete N4ZR The World Contest Station Database, updated daily at www.conteststations.com The Reverse Beacon Network at http://reversebeacon.net, blog at reversebeacon.blogspot.com, spots at telnet.reversebeacon.net, port 7000 On 8/3/2010 11:39 PM, Gary Gregory wrote: > I prefer to use the KDVR for CQ calls and contesting etc. More natural audio > is transmitted than my laptop recordings sound using N1MM...Just my 2 cents > worth...keep the change...(:-)) > > Gary > > On Wed, Aug 4, 2010 at 1:35 PM, Brett Howard<[hidden email]>wrote: > > >> It only functions in SSB mode it provides no advantage in CW mode >> other than the fact that it can record over the air signals... >> >> ~Brett (N7MG) >> >> On Tue, Aug 3, 2010 at 8:11 PM, Stan Gibbs<[hidden email]> wrote: >> >>> I've read the manuals and searched the archives, but I'm still unclear >>> >> what >> >>> benefits, if any, the KDVR3 provides over the built-in CW memories for CW >>> mode. >>> >>> I'm also unclear how the two interrelate; does the KDVR3 override or >>> >> replace >> >>> the CW memories when it is installed, or does it function only in SSB >>> >> mode? >> >>> >>> ----- >>> 73, Stan - KR7C >>> -- >>> View this message in context: >>> >> http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3DVR-vs-CW-Memories-tp5371027p5371027.html >> >>> Sent from the [K3] mailing list archive at Nabble.com. >>> ______________________________________________________________ >>> 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 >>> >>> >> ______________________________________________________________ >> 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 >> >> > > > 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 |

I don't think so Pete, although I haven't yet tried this myself: http://www.dseven.org/ar/n1mm-kdvr3 Whenever 10m comes back to life I'll probably use my KDVR3 in contests. 73, Bill |

While you don't get the ability to do all that you can do with the
computer's sound card - like voicing callsigns etc., - the K3DVR integrates well with N1MM and sends the 4 messages in the K3 very smoothly and there is no discernable difference in transmitted audio quality. The key is that you don't *need* the computer to use them and you don't need to fuss with sound card levels and all of that stuff. For those of us who chose an archaic mode of communication as our primary mode, this amount of automation for fone is just about perfect. I turn ESM off for those rare occasions when I do fone. 73, Bob W5OV -----Original Message----- From: [hidden email] [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of Bill W4ZV Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 2010 5:49 AM To: [hidden email] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3DVR vs CW Memories Pete Smith N4ZR wrote: > > The trouble is that you give up all the advantages of N1MM's > integration of logging and message-sending functions, particularly in > Enter Sends Messages mode. > I don't think so Pete, although I haven't yet tried this myself: http://www.dseven.org/ar/n1mm-kdvr3 Whenever 10m comes back to life I'll probably use my KDVR3 in contests. 73, Bill -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3DVR-vs-CW-Memories-tp5371027p5372003. html Sent from the [K3] mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ 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 ______________________________________________________________ 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 |

I've seen that, and can see how it would work. However, with only 4
memories, you don't get all the potential variation and situation-specific messages that N1MM provides, nor the possibility of voicing callsigns or serial numbers (which I don't advocate, by the way). For example, N1MM gives you 12 messages when running and another 12 for S&P, so you can have multiple-length CQs and different queries like "Sorry, I didn't get your section" and "Your serial number again, please." Another advantage for phone contesters is that you can re-record your Run CQ message on the fly - extremely useful when you're running split on 40 and 80, and need to change your listening frequency (so I'm told - I'm a CW op myself, almost exclusively) 73, Pete N4ZR The World Contest Station Database, updated daily at www.conteststations.com The Reverse Beacon Network at http://reversebeacon.net, blog at reversebeacon.blogspot.com, spots at telnet.reversebeacon.net, port 7000 On 8/4/2010 6:49 AM, Bill W4ZV wrote: > > Pete Smith N4ZR wrote: > >> The trouble is that you give up all the advantages of N1MM's integration >> of logging and message-sending functions, particularly in Enter Sends >> Messages mode. >> >> > I don't think so Pete, although I haven't yet tried this myself: > > http://www.dseven.org/ar/n1mm-kdvr3 > > Whenever 10m comes back to life I'll probably use my KDVR3 in contests. > > 73, Bill > > 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 |

Yep, I use this exclusive. Works great, lasts a long time. Only issue is that the ESC button does not stop the audio transmission, but I "fix" that problem by re-mapping an unused contesting key to emulate a "REC" button press (the button in the center of the memory keys which stops playback). The re-mapped key I use (on my keyboard) is the tilde (~) key immediately below the ESC key. Took no time to get used to. And, as already mentioned, the audio is outstanding.

Do you mean that the KDVR3 can record audio in CW mode? How? Seems like the Rec and M1-M4 buttons are already allocated to the CW memories. I'm really just trying to decide whether or not to install a KDVR3 or not. I'm almost 100% a CW op and I want to make sure of two things: 1) If I don't install the KDVR3, I won't miss it in CW and 2) If I do install it, I won't compromise my CW operating. Thanks to those who responded.

I just wish there was a way to extract a recording digitally. I have a recording of FT5GA on 160m stored there since last October and haven't overwritten it yet hoping I'll find a way! :-) |

Thanks, Lyle, your comment led me to take another look in the manual. Now I think I get it: In either SSB or CW mode the KDVR3 gives you the ability to record 90 seconds of audio using the AF REC and play it back with AF PLAY. In CW mode, the REC and M1-M4 buttons utilize the 8 CW memories. In SSB mode they provide for record and play-back of voice messages. Thanks to all for the help.

I'm with Pete:
4 messages is a bit constricting (I have the same problem with WinTest). Also, in a Multi op situation, when the new operator logs on with Control-O, and if you have them pre-record their messages like I do, each operator's personal messages in his/her own voice are recalled by N1MMLogger. Cant do that with the KDVR. I use a microHAM microKEYER 2 and only record through its built in sound card. Is it just me or am I the only one who cant discern any difference whatsoever in my "canned" messages from the computer to my live mic? If you use a *DIFFERENT* mic and a *DIFFERENT* audio path, there *WILL* be differences in audio. If you record using a different mic and audio "path", or add "effects" like compression or equalization in a audio program, and then play the file in Logger, you *WILL NOT* sound the same as your air mic. The key is to use your "air" microphone and you "air path" for recordings. This way, you will sound the same every time. The KDVR is nice, but in a contesting environment, I have absolutely no use for it. Same for the built in keyer. Glad Elecraft made it an option so that I can spend the money on something else I can actually use. -lu-w4lt- ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 04 Aug 2010 07:58:43 -0400 From: Pete Smith <[hidden email]> Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3DVR vs CW Memories To: Bill W4ZV <[hidden email]> Cc: [hidden email] Message-ID: <[hidden email]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed I've seen that, and can see how it would work.

Be careful. If you are using an interface that provides a hardware PTT - serial port RTS, parallel port PTT or a WinKey based keyer - you will almost certainly have problems with PTT hanging if you add PTT by "software command." Use of both hardware PTT and "software command" has been reported to result in "stuck PTT" with several transceivers including the K3 - and with multiple logging packages. The solution has always been to use only one type of PTT (generally hardware which is more reliable). It appears that more than one transceiver will ignore the opening of an external PTT line if it happens within a few milliseconds of a software PTT OFF command but also ignores the software PTT OFF command if hardware PTT is asserted. 73, ...

Only issue is that the ESC button does not stop the audio transmission, but I "fix" that problem by re-mapping an unused contesting key to emulate a "REC" button press (the button in the center of the memory keys which stops playback). The re-mapped key I use (on my keyboard) is the tilde (~) key immediately below the ESC key.
