RE: Elecraft Digest, Vol 47, Issue 46

[Bob DeHaney]

I am receiving SOME digests truncated as shown here.  The size of the digest
is correct, but I can only read the first 3 messages as you can see.  My
Email client is Outlook 2007 (and no don't tell me I should use some other
client). I believe some character or string is being sent like a single
period in a line for instance, that tells the client to truncate the digest.
A Google search says other clients sometimes also have this problem.  Is
this a fix at the Elecraft end or at the Outlook end?  Suggestions welcome.

Hi all,
Can I redo the K3 config on 5W with the PA physically in place or do I
need to remove it?  I am no at all happy with the output power so I want
to go through the config again.  Like others, I find that on SSB, the
output does not peak at all well.
TX ALC is on but my TXGN HP Pr80 is down at 20, much lower than I have
seen in other reports.

No, afraid its not possible, you have to pick one of either front ,  
rear or line in.
I'd like to be able yo use both rear and line-in simultaneously, for a  
similar method.
Separating Line-In from the Mic would be good.

I think the problem is not elecraft rigs but amplifiers that have
unreasonably slow switching times.
10msec or longer is unreasonably slow and I think it's 'unreasonable' to
blame the manufacturer of the radio because the amp manufacturer saved a
few bucks and used a cheap, slow relay instead of a proper RF relay.

None of my Icoms give me the ability to alter the key delay for slow
amplifiers either.

The correct approach is to mod the amp to improve matters. the other
option is to use the PTT input with a footswitch to take care of RX/TX
changeover
