Hello Elecrafters,
Chad, W1CEG, and Scott WU2X have have just released PowerSDR/IF Stage v1.19.0.1. This is the next version released after v0.92. There are many changes here, too many to list. They are all documented on the release/download page (link below). However, one thing that isn't documented - there isn't support for LP- Bridge as it was in v0.92. There are other ways to use LP-Bridge that I will let Larry explain and document. But, out of the box, the new version supports a direct serial connection to the K3 which makes the K3 work like it did in version 0.92, with much better realtime tuning. Also VFOB linking (should) work. There is also a direct serial connection option for the TS-940S. The Ham Radio Deluxe option still exists. Well that is it for now, Chad and Scott need a rest now, seriously. Full details on this page: Full Info: http://www.wu2x.com/sdr.html 73 -Lee, WW2DX ______________________________________________________________ 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 |

There is currently no support for v1.19.0.1 in any LP-Bridge release version. I have been playing with developmental versions of v1.19.0.1 for about a month, but as of yet have not found it to be stable enough to consider a new LP-Bridge release. This is also the case for this v1.19.0.1 release version. Once v1.19.0.1 becomes fully stable and all the required K3 commands are functional, I will release an updated LP-Bridge.
In the meantime, if folks want to play with v1.19.0.1 and see what's new, they will have to do it with a dedicated connection to the K3. Beware, however, that you may very well have crashes and other issues, especially with VFO B. This should be considered beta software, and treated as such. Scott and Chad will need feedback, so it will be good for the brave at heart to try it and file bug report tickets. By the end of the year, this promises to be THE version to use, especially when the upcoming wideband image rejection feature is finalized by FlexRadio. 73, Larry N8LP

Color me stupid, but I have not come up with a way to change
bands / modes on a band efficiently, I am sure someone has or does this all the time, would appreciate some input. Read before answering because I do know how to change bands and modes, but not in the fashion I would like to. Example: single receiver. VFO A = 14025 Split with VFO B 14027 I wish to go to another DX pileup on SSB VFO A= 14.195 split with VFO B = 14200 And switch back and forth to monitor/ call either freq to work the DX. How can this be done simply to swap between those two modes and freq sets? If I use the Band button I can go between bands to monitor a pile up on another band, how do you do this on one band? Also needs to remember the freq you are using, IE: if you tuned the split to 14205, and switch to CW, when you come back to SSB needs to be the last freq you used. This is easy peaszy on all my other radios using band stacking, its just a press of the 14mhz band button, once for the CW and once for SSB, and they remember the last tuned freq. Seems I am missing something easy here on the K3? Thanks 73 Merv KH7C ______________________________________________________________ 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 |

Merv ....
You didn't say if you are using a PC or not .... With a PC, you can do this by clicking on DX spots and use a program that recognizes QSX in the spot. You might have to put out a spot to get them both on the screen. Otherwise ..... With no PC, and probably a better way to do it .... Put VFO A 14025, VFO B 14027, CW, set your filter for each VFO if needed, SPLIT on and enter that into a memory location with M>V and M1 Then put VFO A 14195, VFO B 14200, SSB, set your filter for each VFO if needed, SPLIT on and enter that into M2 with M>V Now V>M M1 and you are on the CW pileup And V>M M2 and you are on the SSB pileup But ..... In the heat of switching back and forth you must be VERY careful to use the V>M button - do not miss and use the V>M button because you will end up losing one of the memories and have two memories the same. There is no safeguard on V>M ..... That is supposedly "on the list" to have a double tap of the V>M before it writes to the memory location, but there are too many other things ahead of it, I guess. 73 Hank K8DD Merv Schweigert wrote: > Color me stupid, but I have not come up with a way to change > bands / modes on a band efficiently, I am sure someone has > or does this all the time, would appreciate some input. > Read before answering because I do know how to change bands > and modes, but not in the fashion I would like to. > > Example: single receiver. > > VFO A = 14025 Split with VFO B 14027 > > I wish to go to another DX pileup on SSB > > VFO A= 14.195 split with VFO B = 14200 > > And switch back and forth to monitor/ call either > freq to work the DX. > > > How can this be done simply to swap between those two modes > and freq sets? > If I use the Band button I can go between bands to monitor > a pile up on another band, how do you do this on one band? > Also needs to remember the freq you are using, IE: if you > tuned the split to 14205, and switch to CW, when you come > back to SSB needs to be the last freq you used. > > This is easy peaszy on all my other radios using band stacking, > its just a press of the 14mhz band button, once for the CW > and once for SSB, and they remember the last tuned freq. > Seems I am missing something easy here on the K3? > Thanks 73 Merv KH7C > ______________________________________________________________ > 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 believe you mean, use the M>V and don't push V>M.

Think the typo-gremlin hit Hank there. He meant to say . . . Now M>V M1 and you are on CW pileup And M>V M2 and you are on the SSB pileup Likewise the next paragraph should read . . . " . . . be VERY careful to use the M>V button -- do not miss and use the V>M button because you will end up losing . . ." etc. 73, Kent K9ZTV .k8dd. wrote: > Now V>M M1 and you are on the CW pileup > And V>M M2 and you are on the SSB pileup > > But .....

Yep caught that right off.. I currently have M1 set for CW end of each
band and M2 set for SSB. I just came up with my own solution I think, VFO A 14025 VFO B 14027 SPLIT ON hit V>M3 Hit M>V M2 I go to SSB set freq for VFO A 14195 VFO B 14205 SPLIT ON hit V>M4 now all I have to do to toggle between pile ups is hit either M>V M3 or M4 Just have to remember if I tune either VFO to hit the appropriate V>M3 or 4 to put the new freq in memory. That still leaves my M1 set for CW on each band and M2 set for SSB for each band. Lots of button pushing, will help a lot of the double tap of V>M comes along to prohibit my fat finger errors. Not to reopen another thread but band stacking would fix all this button pushing so easy. Thanks guys 73 Merv KH7C > Merv . . . > > Think the typo-gremlin hit Hank there.

I've coloured my V>M button with a red marker pen.
