Good Morning All,
A number of hams have ordered a SoftRock Lite kit for the K3 IF application.
The SoftRock Lite for this use includes a 32.768 MHz crystal to give a
center frequency of about 8.191 MHz. This would require that the soundcard
used for the application sample at 96 kHz to span the K3 IF in a good way.
The resulting IF frequency coverage would be from about 8.143 MHz to 8.239
MHz. There may be some design issues with the kit I am providing relating
to the signal and Z level at the IF output of the K3.
This morning I built an example of the SoftRock Lite for the K3 IF use and
as I type this I have it playing on this PC using the Rocky 3.2 software.
This SoftRock example needs a better test than I can do with my limited test
equipment. Is there someone on the list that already has a pre-production
K3 and would be interested in evaluating the SoftRock for the K3 use. If
so, I would be happy to send them this unit at no cost if they would give it
a try, help work through any interface issues, and report their findings,
(good or bad), to the list.
Please contact me at
[hidden email] if interested.
Thanks and 73,
Tony KB9YIG
