access it through CONFIG TX GATE, how to tap 1 to turn it on and off, and how to use VFO A to adjust it, nothing happens. Zero. There is absolutely no gate action, no change in the sound as I run the adjustment from one end to the other. What might I be doing wrong? Richard - W4KBX

Re: [Elecraft] K3S TX Noise Gate

Bill, Tx EQ: 50 = -16 100 = -12 200 = -6 400 = 0 800 = 0 1200 = +3 2400 = +9 3200 = +12 This works well for me. Richard - W4KBX > On Mar 18, 2018, at 10:53 AM, Bill Johnson wrote: > > Do you have the equalizer set higher levels or lower on the upper audio > ra

[Elecraft] Who's On First?

[Elecraft] 110 or 120 watts ??

I did the latest download to get my P3 working. The P3 works now but the display shows a max of 110 watts where before it showed 120. I know it won’t probably make any difference to those listening to me. Just wondering if Elecraft changed the max wattage or if I did somehow ???
