To use "test mode" for practicing CW sending on the K1:
Select the OUT menu entry and hold EDIT to display the power output level. Next, hold DISPLAY. The power output parameter will change to P = 0 , indicating that the transmitter is disabled. To restore the original power level setting, hold DISPLAY again. --Andrew, NV1B On Thu, Oct 18, 2012 at 5:08 AM, greg fripp <[hidden email]> wrote: > my k1 is arriving fully built next week. > ... > i would like to use it to listen to my code as i learn > can i use my k1 for that? > ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |

Greg,
You can use most any transceiver that generates sidetone for that purpose. Turn the power down and attach a dummy load. With the K1, set the menu OUT parameter to as low a setting as possible. I would attach a dummy load in any event, even if the indicated power output is zero. 73, Don W3FPR On 10/18/2012 5:08 AM, greg fripp wrote: > my k1 is arriving fully built next week. > (thank colin m0ccgh for building it) > i have a query though about it > the keyed test modes mentioned on peg 55 of their handbook > it says that you can practice sending recording messages > OR JUST SENDING CODE WITH THE KEYER ( my caps) > i would like to use it to listen to my code as i learn > can i use my k1 for that? > colin seems to think that i can't > could some experts help me please? > this would prove very useful to me... > > > > -- > View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/keyer-test-mode-tp7564267.html > Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > ______________________________________________________________ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:[hidden email] > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html > ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |

You can save messages and the listen to them repeatedly. You can set power out to zero and send messages by key and listen while sending. Note sure I understand the question. (Not an expert).
