[KX3] MCU 2.27 BUG NB/NR mode

Hi all, Happy New Year 2015!

In version 2.27, when you turn on the NR or NB of KX3, will not move the main dial.

Is this a specification, or bug of v2.27?

I observe this pause too. The main VFO does not move while the NR or NB setting display is showing. I am not sure if this was always like this or not.

Perhaps someone with an earlier version of firmware would like to check and comment?

Re: [KX3] MCU 2.27 BUG NB/NR mode

I tried this out last night and had different results. I was able to tune
with no problem with both or either NB or NR selected. But, I did notice
that if I selected say NR and then changed the value to something else say
4 instead of 5, then I had to click another button (or the NR button) again
to be able to tune. If I was satisfied with the NR or NB setting after
having selected that function, then about 3 seconds later the KX3 just
accepted that value and returned me to normal operations; i.e, I was able
to tune with the main vfo knob.

David, I think this is consistent with your results as well. You can't
move on until you finish with that function.

Brian

Re: [KX3] MCU 2.27 BUG NB/NR mode

Hi Brian / VE3IBW, David / GM4JJJ

While setting PBT I/II , I was able to tune the main knob.

As with this, While setting NR/NB, I should be able to tune the main knob.

#Turning the PBT knob in NR/NB setting, PBT settings are changed(set and exit NR/NB).
#If the same as this manner, I should be able to tune the main knob...OR KX3 should not
#change in PBT setting mode.

However, this is GUI design concept...

When you're displaying noise blanker or or noise reduction parameters, etc., the VFO is disabled.

Re: [KX3] MCU 2.27 BUG NB/NR mode

Thanks for clarifying that. It's not something that had bothered me, but I just observed it after Nakamura asked the question about the behaviour of the VFO with NB/NR. I had thought at first he meant it stopped the VFO completely, not just a short pause while displaying the parameters - which I am sure there are technical reasons for.
