Re: P3- Center Freq - a zero

[Jim Douglass]

I received P3 s/n 2716 this past week and have just hooked it up.
I read the manual several times and have noticed in the photos and in
the text that VFO A  frequency should be at the center of the display.
It is not, instead  -a zero- is there.
K3 f/w 4.39 P3 f/w 1.26. I have the IF out of the K3 and IF IN to P3 and
12vdc power. Any help would be appreciated.

Jim- a few thoughts on this.

1. You only stated you have power and IF into the P3. You did not mention
whether or not you have the RS232 cable connected between the K3 and the P3.
This is essential for getting the freq info from the K3.

2. In the P3 menu XCVR SEL: is it set to K3?

3. Make sure the K3 RS232 speed is set to 38400 baud.
