Hi to all: This subject has been posted before and I found the answer on the Elecraft historical threads web page. In any event I tried the recommended solution but have not been able to get the K3S to key the VL1000.
Specifically, I’m using a Band data one cable put together by Array Solutions (designator K3VL1K1) to connect the ACC output on the K3S to the Band data 1 input on the VL1000. With the VL1000 turned off and the power supply turned on, I can use the K3S on all bands FB; When I turn the VL1000 on and select input 1, I can use the K3S on all bands, with auto band switching by the VL1000. However, when I press the operate button on the VL1000, the unit will not key on any band, but the auto band switching function on the VL1000 continues to work. My initial thought is that the K3VL1K1 is not wired correctly and will not key the amp. But, when I checked the wiring it appeared to be wired correctly. So my query is (1)Is the K3VL1K1 the correct cable for what I’m trying to do (i.e. auto band switch and key the amplifier?, and if it is the correct cable is there a config menu setting that needs to be implemented (i’ve checked and haven’t found any)?, or is there something I’m missing or not doing. Any thoughts or advice will be appreciated.
