The K2SB was absolutely the hardest kit to build out of the entire K2. There
are a lot of parts, and it is a very small board.

Digital Signal Processing is a field all unto itself. They are definitely *not*
emulating mechanical filters. If they were they would be ringing like a
mechanical filter. A great text is, "Discrete-Time Signal Processing

Jerry,
Yes, there is a bit of compromise between LSB and USB on the carrier
null, but it should not be much. Settle for a compromise position.

So I got up at 5:30 this morning and continued stuffing the SSB adapter

Trying it out, the CPU came up... CW still worked... But no SSB

anything at all.

My rule of thumb is that if you can keep your finger on it for a second or
so without pain, it's not too hot.
The ambient temperature is really not the issue as much as whether heat is
carried off. I know it's hot in the pacific northwest but I think you can
still enjoy your gear. The

Knowing Elecraft, I don't think you have anything to worry about.
You will get a unit that will be like new. There may be slight cosmetic
marks on the case, but that's doubtful too.

After Elecraft discontinued the P3, I was alarmed, because I wanted one. So,
when they offered to sell a limited number of new units, I ordered a P3 when it
was first available.
At the time, Elecraft said they were going to order the parts and would send

I have not looked at the KXSER cable in the amp manual, but I am

Hi Don,
I should have given more details -

Paul,
Is the FTDI adapter identifying as a COM port when it is plugged in?
You can check using Device Manager - open Ports and unplug the adapter -
which COM port goes away? Then plug it back in and observe which COM
port is assigned.
Windows no longer adds the FTDI drivers, you must
I would assume so, as mine is the same way... So unless both of our

Good evening,
I am trying to find a wiring layout for the kxusb cable. I have the
wiring diagram for the kxser cable (from the amp manual), and have tried
using an FTDI adaptor with this layout. Unfortunately the software
reports that the KX3 is not responding.
Have any of you gone down

Running a full Windows OS under emulation on a Raspberry Pi, just to run
one app is not a very good idea (as Adrian pointed out).
An alternative would be to run QEMU on the Pi, which provides an x86

There is a switch in the rear left of the cabinet as seen from the

I use a clamp on ammeter and a short power cord jumper with the wires
separated where I can clamp over the black wire. That quantitatively tells me
the power being consumed/dissipated. Keep in mind temperature is intensive
