K3: KXV3 Issues

Phil Shepard
I have K3 s/n 1826 that I love.  I just installed a KXV3 (not KXV3A) I/F
adapter.  The problem is that when I try to do the Milliwatt TX Gain
Calibration procedure, I get errors.  I connected a dummy load to the XVTR
jack and put the KXV3 into TEST mode.  The procedure looks fine on 160 M,
yielding 1.00 mW.  The other bands give low or 0.00 readings and return the
TXG error.  Am I doing something wrong?  Should I have clipped the W1 and W2
jumpers on the RF PCB?  Thanks for your help.

73,

Phil, NS7P

  Phil,

Yes, you should have clipped those jumpers.  If they are not clipped the
results will be as you describe (guess how I know).

Elecraft SSB Net results (1-2-11)

Phil Shepard
In reply to this post by Phil Shepard
We had a difficult net today.  Propagation didn't seem that great, and we
were bothered quite a bit by QRM from 14.313 MHz.  After a few minutes, we
QSYed to 14.315 MHz to get away from the QRM, but it was still a problem.
As it was, we had 15 participants over a 20 minute period.  Thanks to
everyone who checked in. Ken, KO5Y, in NM will be the NCS next week.  Happy
New Year.  Here is a list of the participants:

Station Name QTH Rig S/N

Hi,

Isn't it time to try to find a new frequency? I always have QRM from *both* 14313 and 14316. There are always politicos on 14313. In one of the earliest nets, it was moved to 14310 which was very good here.

Propagation seemed poor in AZ. Usually Phil is 59 and I couldn't hear him hardly at all. Relay stations and most others were not too strong either so I didn't check in.

We had a good net this morning with 36 participants over a 33 minute period.
QRM was not a problem, and most stations were strong in Oregon.  We again

as an OM and XYL checkin.  Discussions were on filter selection for new K3

Elecraft SSB Net results (2-20-11)

Phil Shepard
The net got off to a slow start due to the terrible QRM from 14.313 and the
refuse taking over that frequency today.  Rather than fight it, we moved to
14.316 MHz and were much better off.  We'll see how the situation is next
week and see if we need to move again.  Propagation was OK, and we had three
DX check-ins (DK1, EI6 and ZL1).  We were also bothered a bit by pulsed QRM
of some kind but worked through it. We had 30 participants over a 34 minute
period, with six K2s.  The discussions were on the KPA500 - Brendan, EI6IZ,
is field testing the amp and shared his feedback with us.  Here is the list
of participants.

Elecraft SSB Net results (2-27-11)

Propagation was mixed - some stations were strong but many were weaker than
they usually are.  We did have two DX check-ins (EI6 and ZL1).  We had 35
participants over a 37 minute period.  The discussions were on the hardware
requirements for diversity receive in the shortwave broadcast bands.  There
was one check-in who seemed to be asking provoking questions.  He may not
actually be licensed.  Here is the list of participants.

He is licensed but obviously has been banished from QRZ.COM. Google his call and you'll see why.

Elecraft SSB Net results (3-20-11)

Phil Shepard
In reply to this post by Phil Shepard
Well, we started the net on 14.314 (our usual frequency).  We quickly drew
heavy QRM, with harangues to get off of "their" frequency.  I got about 8 of
our stronger stations checked in, but the situation was deteriorating
quickly.  I looked up band, found quiet at 14.317 and took the net there.
After a minute of being told to stay there and not come back to their
frequency, we were left alone.  It went well after that and we had 37
participants over the total 30 minutes.  I think finding a new frequency is
the best course of action - maybe in the 14.316 to 14.320 area.  Here is the
list of participants.

Elecraft SSB Net results (4-10-11)

Phil Shepard
It was good to be back with the net this week.  Thanks again to Ken, KO5Y,
for taking over the net in my absence.  Propagation was OK to some areas,
but not as good to others.  The new frequency (14.316) seems to be working
out.  We had 32 participants over a 25 minute period.  There is lots of buzz
about the new KPA500.

Here is the list of participants.

Elecraft SSB Net results (4-17-11)

Phil Shepard
Propagation was OK.  Nothing too long however.  The frequency (14.316 MHz)
was plagued by some type of pulsed QRM - short pulses at about a 2 second
interval, about S6 here in Oregon with my antenna pointed east.  I was able
to copy through it without too much trouble.  We had 25 participants over a
21 minute period.

Here is the list of participants.

I noticed it too, and found that using AutoNotch reduced it enough to
hear some weak stations through it.

It seems to be strongest somewhere in the Tri-state.  I auto-notched
it then tried to filter it out with no luck (notch helps but its still
very distinct).

Another note, I don't know about everyone else but 20m at 2PM EDT
(1800z) yesterday was very very noisy.

I had intentions of checking it Sunday and monitored the preceding
net, but was called to breakfast about 30-min before net time (10am
local).  I got reading the newspaper and missed the net.

I had an interesting contact earlier on 20m with W6SMJ/mobile south
of Visalia, CA coming from the DX Conference.  He could hear my 16w
fairly well though QRM finally drown me out (I supposed it was all
those guys with new KPA-500 tuning up!).  Conditions seemed real good
at that time.  I use a Hygain TH3mk4 triband yagi at 50 feet.

Elecraft SSB Net results (5-1-11)

Phil Shepard
In reply to this post by Phil Shepard
We switched to a new frequency this week - 14.3035 MHz.  It seemed to work
out, so we'll try it again next week at the same spot.  The turn-out was
modest this week, 23 participants.  The only discussions were audio checks
and a request for feedback on the KPA500 (nobody on frequency had one yet).
The northeast US was light, and all rigs were K3s this week.

Here is the list of participants.
