please note the following is meant as a bit of humor a tongue in cheek JOKE if you will, on a slow list day NOT an attack on anyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
/rant on and all these annoying miscellaneous clicks and pops that are so indicative of the K3 being of such a poor quality radio are evident only when attaching something external not made by Elecraft to the ELECRAFT K3 gezz folks, can't you just enjoy the fact that you are the proud owner of an exceptional radio to play with, after it gets fired up and operational? or maybe better yet consider selling your K3s so you won't be troubled by such blatant indications of shoddy workmanship then you can *itch and moan on some other list about all this petty little *rap some times it just gets to be almost to much to bare /rant off p.s. other options available 1) leave the rig on 24/7 2) get someone else to go in and turn the k3 on for you so your delicate sensibilities are shielded from dealing with all these horrific 'electronic clicks and pops' 3) take up knitting have a nice day and keep smiling <big_grin> GB & 73 K5OAI Sam Morgan > the K3 has a pronounced turn on click through the loudspeaker. > When connected to external speakers, > the click is loud and out of character with the quality feel of the radio. >> > On K3 turn on, I hear two clicks on the speaker before the display turns > on (not the relay clicks). > I also hear a click during K3 turning off, just when the display turns off. > > I agree with you, it is a stupid thing but they to not match with a > superb radio. > ______________________________________________________________ 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
