Hi Jerry, Glad that it helped. -- 73 de Mike Flowers, K6MKF, NCDXC - "It's about DX!"

Is there any CAT control software involved? If so, it may be enforcing a Mode change. - 73 and good DX de Mike, K6MKF, NCDXC Secretary

Hi Jerry, That voltage is fine. No telling what the VAC input was to your power supply at the time of the incident. But I remember the error meant low voltage to a processor. Hopefully, just a one-off

Hi Jerry, I had the very same problem, which with help of folks here I tracked down to the voltage drop in my VDC input from my Astron supply. After many years of service, the Astron’s output voltage

Hi Lawrence, One thing to check is that the K3 has selected the correct antenna. I’ve had this situation when my antenna was on ANT1 but somehow my K3 was on ANT2. - 73 and good DX de Mike, K6MKF, NCD

Tried to upload this to the FILES section of the group, but that was denied. It’s just something I found useful … Here’s a Dropbox link to the document: https://www.dropbox.com/s/u06kk1ax84hzag6/K-POD

So, I wonder if the Windows USB port 'Power Management' is in play here? Wake ... sleep ... wake ... sleep ... - 73 and good DX de Mike, K6MKF, NCDXC Secretary

How is CAT control achieved here ... RS232 or USB/RS232? Sounds to me as if the PC is 'poling' the COM port for some reason. - 73 and good DX de Mike, K6MKF, NCDXC Secretary

There’s a config parameter about having the KPA3 installed. I had an occasion when I had inadvertently turned it off. Worth a check ... -- 73 de Mike Flowers, K6MKF, NCDXC - "It's about DX!"

First, BSET - it’s a HOLD I think, then set the filters- then BSET HOLD again. -- 73 de Mike Flowers, K6MKF, NCDXC - "It's about DX!"

Thank you, Bill. I’ll check this out. I’ a DXLab user, so I’m hoping for a compatible solution. - 73 and good DX de Mike, K6MKF, Past President - NCDXC

Hi Gang, Is anyone out there using a SVGA capture card/device to capture the SVGA from the P3 and present the display in a Windows 10 window? I’ve got two large monitors with loads of screen real esta

I operate FT8 using DATA A mode. When I am decoding FT8 I find I have the best results when the WSJT-X input graph to the left reads between 60dB and 70dB. Mouse over this graph and it recommends 30dB

I think you should consider putting some ferrite beads on all your PC-to-K3 lines, etc. I suspect RF rode in on one and did some damage. -- Mike Flowers, K6MKF, NCDXC - "It's about DX!"

Are you seeing any other COM ports? Sometimes Windows will assign a different COM port number for reasons that are not clear to me. If not, it is possible RF has gotten on the CAT line and done someth

Did the K3 Utility connect now? -- Mike Flowers, K6MKF, NCDXC - "It's about DX!"

See if the K3 Utility will still connect. If not, then suspect something with the K3S. Were you running with an amp? - 73 and good DX de Mike, K6MKF, Past President - NCDXC

There is a configuration parameter that affects the SUB in this way. I will see what I can find in a scan of the PDF manual. -- Mike Flowers, K6MKF, NCDXC - "It's about DX!"

Hi Lou, Yes, you can. I have some of the K-POD function keys set to enable my CM500 headset, set LINE IN for digimodes, etc. - 73 and good DX de Mike, K6MKF, Past President - NCDXC

Well, I’d disconnect them and ensure that the internal metal contacts are clean and bright, both on the DC power cable and the K3. Also check for good contacts with any fuses in the DC supply cable. -
