Return to the list + K3 panoramic adapter

A.K.Forrest


Dear All,

  have been off the list for a couple of years but have been using my
K2/100 as my only rig, mainly psk31. The K3 has brought me back to
see what's going on.

Its probably a bit late to make suggestions for the K3 and anyway the
relatively minor problems I have had with the K2 and psk31 all seem
to have been addressed in the K3 design, however there has been
mention of a future band scope/panoramic adapter. Can I suggest as
well as monitoring incoming signals graphically that the same could
be done for the transmitted signal. I have continuous monitoring of
the PSK IMD  (with kk7uq meter) which is very useful. Its very easy
to overdrive and cause splatter. The system would need to display
about 40dB dynamic range to be useful and, of course,  be able to
display frequency peaks 31Hz apart.

The above facility would also allow testing of the entire signal path
for distortion which would be useful for SSB as well and would seem
to fit well with the K3 facilities for psk31 reception

Wish list: K3 panoramic adapter

What I have always missed is a graphic display showing me the RX
spectrum (Panadapter) with band map information from the contest
logging software (WinTest) imposed on the spectrum. Ideally all on the
same computer screen...
