Hi Tony, The K3 is a no-soldering kit, requiring only ordinary hand tools. We do recommend you have a digital multimeter for some of the checks. But all of the PC boards are completely pre-assembled and tested. That's why a K3 you build is guaranteed to work just as well as one that's factory-built.
Even thought the K3 is a no-soldering kit, it'll still take you a good day's work to put it together -- lots of PC boards, hardware, knobs, chassis components, etc. :) There are a number of Youtube videos showing K3 assembly and operation. 73, Wayne N6KR On Dec 16, 2010, at 6:11 PM, tony rowland wrote: > am new to ham and to kit building. is the k-3 kit a deep end of the > pool kit or can us wading pool types get our feet wet with it? > s/ tony rowland > ______________________________________________________________ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
