In today’s Contest University presentation, N6TV covered USB and Serial interfaces. and THANK YOU N6TV!! Bob gave the key item to get the FTDI seral converters programmed so don’t key rig

Thanks for the feedback/comments. Bob's (N3XKB) report that rotating the encoders slower seems to improve their detection of the knob turning is spot on with my experience. When the encoders are

I think the electronics and/or firmware associated with the recorders limits the rate. If you turn the knob too fast, the count doesn't change. I notice this particularly when trying to

Cool, I also have one of those, and it almost replaces touching the front panel... 73, and thanks, Dave (NK7Z) https://www.nk7z.net ARRL Volunteer Examiner ARRL Technical Specialist ARRL Asst.

I have done a lot of them. Make sure you solder suck and release all the pins so you don't rip any traces. (or you can cut the ones you can reach and remove individually). Clean any fluid that has

I am about to start replacement of the group of 4 rotary encoders/PB switches on my K3 SN6000+ for the second time. I first replaced them in March 2015, so they lasted about 5 yrs. First time, only 2

It is actually coming along fairly nicely... I will bundle all the cables tomorrow after toning them out to make sure I made no errors in plugging them in. 73, and thanks, Dave

Dang. That is a thing of beauty… Kelly AJ6KZ

Hello, A short update on the new home for my K3. I have terminated all 80 plus BNC connectors, and the patch panel is ready to mount in the hutch... See the last 4 photos for the current state of
