P3 info

[Thaire Bryant-3]

I have just noticed that after replacing my K3 with a K3S my P3 no longer
shows the center frequency of VFO A (7.234, 14.234, etc,).  I cannot find
any info in the manual or the Fred Katy book.  Could I have miss-cabled or
changed a menu option inadvertently.  All other functions are normal.

 

Thanks in advance for any info,

73

I believe that means that there is no RS-232 connection between the K3S
and P3.  Check the K3S manual for the correct hookup.

I recommend checking the P3 Manual for the correct hookup.  You can either
use the optional CBLP3Y cable (a separate purchase) or the RJ-45 to DE9-F
adapter cable that is supplied with every K3S.  If using the latter, you
have to change CONFIG:RS232 to 38400 (not USB), and the USB cable can
only be used for the USB Audio CODEC, not rig control, and you use the same
serial cable you were using before, with the K3.  Otherwise, you need to
use the CBL3P3Y to make everything work with one USB cable (CONFIG:RS232
USB).
