Hello Mitch,
Do appreciate your quick response.

Sorry to trouble you, it was my mistake. It's a first time when I used Yaesu MD-100 microphone connected directly to RRC box. The microphone base has 2 PTT switches- Lock and PTT, plus the microphone itself also has a PTT switch, which accidently was turned on. That is why I heard no sound since the radio was in transmit mode.
Most of the troubles lie on the surface, including this one.
When I travel, I use TP-Link access point (WR843ND) as a wireless/wire bridge and it works fine for me. No problems working from US/Mexico hotels.

Thanks again,
Evgeny, VE3SSR

General discussion forum / Connect to radio, no sound

« on: 2014-10-06, 06:33:40 »

Hello,
When connecting to remote radio I usually hear some clicks and then, a sound from the radio.
Sometimes to hear the sound I had to connect/disconnect a few times.
Today I tried to get access to my radio (Elecraft K3) from a hotel. Heard some clicks, but not all of them which I hear from home location, some were missing. It looked like a connection was established, I could change frequencies and other settings with HamRadio Deluxe, but heard no sound what so ever! Repeatedly tried to connect/disconnect - still no sound.
Do appreciate if someone could give me a hint where to troubleshoot. A friend of mine sharing the same RRC remote control box, but using K3/0 had no problem to connect.
Any input greatly appreciated.
Evgeny, VE3SSR.

You are great man Mitch!!!

Everything works fine now.
Thanks a lot for your advice.
I believe this should be included into Elecraft K3/0 Mini and RRC-1258MkIIs users manuals.
My problem was remote RRC serial settings on COM1 to Mode-6, not 7.
Best regards and thanks for your help. I have spent a week trying to resolve the issue.

Hardware, Cabling, Installations / Elecraft K3 twin and Ham Radio Deluxe communication issues

« on: 2014-08-23, 20:50:12 »

Hello,
I successfully control remote radio - Elecraft K3 via K3/0 Mini and RRC-1258MkIIs setup. Radio configured as Elecraft twin (14).
However, with this setup I can't communicate to Ham radio Deluxe or N1MM.
Tried all possible settings, ports and cables - still no luck.
When communicating without K3/0 Mini via laptop and the radio configured in mode 4 (Elecraft, etc.) -the  Ham Radio Deluxe works fine.

Would do appreciate if someone could advice which settings should I verify to be able communicate with Ham Radio Deluxe with Elecraft twin mode.
