It's choice Jim and there's nothing wrong with yours but Elecraft has, for a long time, catered to those who like building their own and, from time to time, modifying or improving upon them. In that spirit they continue to offer us a choice. 73, Gary N6LRV

Or I'd pull it off the P/S directly instead of fooling around with SMT parts and tearing up the radio. Am I missing something? I use the K3 12V jack for my PR6 but have my P3 connected to the power supply that powers other 12V accessories. 73, Jim N7US ______________________________________________________________ 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
