VFO A tracks VFO b, Help
Locked
 
|
I updated my firmware and caused a problem. I have not purchased a sub receiver and is not installed.
When I'm in VFO A, and do a band change, VFO B follows the same band.
I can swap A=>B or B=>A, move from A to B or B to A.
But I can't have VFO A on 40 meters and VFO B on 20 meters.
The Band switch transfers both VFO's to the same band at the same time.
What have I done? Tnx Ted WA6RIV

Ted,
It has always worked like that. If you previously had VFO A and VFO B showing different bands, I would think you had a display problem. Currently even with the KRX3 installed, cross-band operation is not yet implemented in the current firmware, but is being addressed as a planned future firmware addition (only for those with the KRX3). 73, Don W3FPR wa6riv wrote: > I updated my firmware and caused a problem.

What a surprise! Cross band operation with 2 VFO is implemented even in my
IC7000. I thought it is available in K3 as well especially with 2 complete RX build in. Well I hope it will not take long to update the firmware to implement this feature because my K3 with KRX3 is on the way here and I was intending to use these 2 receivers to monitor 2 bands simultaneously. \ 73, Igor UA9CDC > Ted, > > It has always worked like that.

This is a high priority and Wayne is working on it now. But it is NOT a trivial matter
and requires a lot of code. When it's ready it will be announced on the reflector. ------------------------- 73, Greg - AB7R Whidbey Island WA NA-065 On Tue Oct 14 13:22 , "Igor Sokolov" sent: >What a surprise!

Hi all,
I see the lack of crossband A/B switch as a real shortcoming of the K3. I am used to using the A/B switch for a quick excursion to another band to check for band conditions. I realize that with crossband *split* operation, full QSK is not possible because of the many relays involved, but crossband A/B switching should be child's play even without the subreceiver. Please, Elecraft, fix this, even on units without the subreceiver. I don't think there is another transceiver on the market that doesn't allow this. My $450 IC-718 certainly does. Knut - AB2TC

Hi Knut, This will be possible after I complete work related to the "VFO IND" (VFO independence) menu entry. This affects a large amount of firmware, and it won't escape my lab until it's fully tested. 73, Wayne N6KR --- http://www.elecraft.com _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [hidden email] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
