1. Fix it so spot pitch does not mute the RX. Makes it hard to adjustin a busy contest. At a multi, different CW ops have different tone centers. Folks at NY4A set it anywhere from 450 to 650. Comes into play when handing off a run to another op for a bathroom break. Hit CQ, hand the headsets and jump out of the chair. If I'm taking over, I may be stuck with that 650 for a while because it mutes on RX and you can't change it on TX.
2. Make it possible to tune RX while changing NR parameters, currently VFO A is frozen even though it's not used for setting parms. 3a. Based on a saved RF gain for 50 uV cal signal, allow an AFV reading mode that is in dBm, with a selectable peak retain mode. This should not require resynching to 50uV every time, and be remembered. KRX3 should have its own independent setting. Based upon RF gain calibration, all that should be needed is front panel settings to be in a routine range. 3b. Assuming 3a. was done, if two RX and diversity mode is on, display AFV both signals in a differential mode for concise A/B testing. 3c. Assuming 3a. and 3b. were done, allow for time averaging and peak save of values. Suggest AGC fast is no time averaging, AGC slow is time averaging. CW mode is no peak save, SSB mode is peak save. Data mode shows signal to noise instead of signal. 4. When AGC is off, use the limiter settings to set a very high intercept "defensive AGC" with response just slow enough to avoid distortion when a loud signal pops in. Value of lim sets how loud the signal will get before defensive AGC intercepts, but otherwise RF gain sets the chain. 5. Data from 3a-c viewable on a horizontal scrolling display on P3 calibrated in dBm. This would include showing both signals from diversity mode. 6. Fix internal speaker microphonic issue. 7. Add Ultimatic to Iambic A&B paddle modes. This is not a long list of complaints, just stuff that to my mind would add to its capabilities. K3 is best rig I have ever had, by far. 73, Guy. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
