N1MM+ & K3/K3s & Diversity

[Elecraft mailing list]

I am willing to bet that while trying to hit the ESC key in N1MM+, you
accidentally or also hit the ~ key immediately below the escape key. 
That will cause the symptom you described.

Dan

From the N1MM+ documentation (Supported Radios page, K3/K3S section):

. The stereo (grave accent - ` key, at the left end of the number keys row
on many keyboards) toggles Sub on and off. It is identical to pressing the
SUB radio button. To leave SUB on all the time, select Config > Sub
Receiver Always On

..I f you have selected Diversity mode on the radio, toggling Sub off and
on via ` or Alt+F12 will turn Diversity mode off

.. Logger preserves diversity reception on the K3 unless RX Focus changes
to vfoB at which time the subRX will switch to vfoB (note that in diversity
reception mode, both receivers are using VFO A, so full SO2V functionality
is not available without leaving diversity mode)

To expand on this last point, if N1MM+ is in SO2V mode rather than SO1V,
then any time the focus moves to the VFO B Entry window (including
inadvertent mouse clicks, or pressing the Pause, backslash, Ctrl+right
arrow or Alt+F10 keys), Diversity will be turned off. This might even be
caused by RFI in some cases.

Al, Dan & Rich,

Thanks guys, that indeed is the cause of
the problem. I have an old hand injury
that makes using the little finger on the
left hand a challenge in the typing
position. I started N1MM+, put the K3s in
diversity and tapped the key and that
dis-engaged it. Problem found so thank
you.

I now have a further problem in that I do
have SO1R checked off in N1MM and when I
look at Config > Sub Receiver Always On,
the line is greyed out and I can't select
it.

Now that I know where the problem resides,
I'll see if the N1MM reflector has an
answer. If not, I'll find what the code is
for the "`" and find what to write to
create a scancode map for the keyboard in
Win 10 to block that function.

I have done that for years now with the
caps lock key, I type an entry in the
registry to only allow caps while the key
is constantly depressed. That prevents me
from looking up after typing an opus only
to find it's mostly in caps & I had
accidentally hit the caps lock key and now
I have to re-type everything...

Thank you & 73,

Gary
