[Elecraft] KX3: automated sideband nulling routine using XG3..

[Bob Henderson]

 Dave

The automated routine is embedded in the KX3. No additional software is
needed.  I used an HP8640B sig gen as I don't own an XG3.

Download the appropriate App Note from the URL below. All will become clear.

I found use of the routine followed by minor manual tweaks produced the
best results.

I don't supose for one moment, that there could be a version of that "Other
Sideband Nulling" software, that could be persuaded to work with more
"normal" signal generators, from the likes of HP/Agilent, R&S, Marconi etc,
via GPIB or Serial (using VISA call's for example?)

Else.   Are all the commands that the software uses with the XG3
documented, so an interface (with virtual COM port) could be written to
do that?   (Emulate the XG3, while passing on the frequency/level data to
the alternative sig gen.)
