Hi Terry,
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
I would prefer it to be a week later, if possible. If it was a week later, it would be on my weekend off, and it would be much nicer to not have to take all most a weeks vacation (36 hours worth) to get Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights off. I haven't talked to Joe K0NEB lately, but if I can talk him in to going I suspect that he will want to have it on the date you have picked.. Will have to talk to him this weekend if he shows up at the QRP "lark in the Park" our group is having this weekend. I have offered him the loan of one of my other tents and camping stuff.. so will have to see what he says this weekend. Unless he replies here... Joe? Mike, NF0N , is not sure as of the last time we talked. He is getting a new knee as soon as he gets back from a week long bike ride across Wisconsin the 2nd week of August. He's not sure how well he will be feeling by the time it rolls around. I will have to put in for vacation time soon, so the sooner the better as far as picking a date goes! Just have to know for sure. 73 - Arnie KA0NCR

Terry, Lots of QRN here in Ohio as we had a cold front passed through here earlier today. After a ton of rain, we should be moving into a dryer period for at least the next week.

Re: Brutus Dates
Sounds good to me Terry. Wife will be retired by that time so we ought to be able to make it. Don't have any camping equipment so are there any fairly decent motels in the area?

Re: Anybody using a 4slink with a KX3?
Steve, and others, I was a bit unclear in my reply. It's the 4SLink that needs to be modified, not the KX3. Just wanted to make sure you understood that. The KX3's mic jack was designed properly with mic audio on the tip and PTT on the ring like most other rigs that use the 1/8" stereo mic plug.

If you have a webcam and a microphone on your computer all you have to do is add members to your circles on G+ and when one of those members is online the same time as your are you can choose to start a hangout with each other and have as many as ten people in each video chat at a time. It's like Go to Meeting only free. Bobby

Re: Anybody using a 4slink with a KX3?
Hi Steve,
Yup, I'm using one. It's straightforward except for one glitch. The MIC/PTT jack is wired backwards for the KX3 so you can't use a commercially wired stereo cable between the 4SLink and the KX3. In the 4SLink, on that jack, audio is on the ring and PTT is on the tip. I don't know why it was designed that way as most rigs use the convention of microphone audio on the tip and PTT on the ring with, of course, ground being on the shell.
You have 2 choices, you can either make up a cable with the radio end having audio on the tip and PTT on the ring or you can do as I did and modify the 4SLink. I cut the traces going to tip and ring on the MIC/PTT Jack and using some 22 gauge wire, re-wired the jack so that audio now appears on the tip contact and PTT appears on the ring contact. Now, I can use the Elecraft cable kit option and the 4SLink really works great between my laptop and the KX3.
If you go the modified cable route, be sure and mark that cable so you don't accidentally get it mixed up with a normal one. Having the tip and ring interchanged between ends might create a problem in some other situation.
