I just got my UPS tracking number and my new K3s
will arrive on Wednsday. So now the decision of
whether to keep my K3 100 as a backup or sell it.
It is s/n 8164 and was purchased in April of
2014. It is a basic K3. Has the KTCX03-1 1ppm
TCXO and the 2.8kHz 8 pole filter, KANT3 (no
antenna tuner). It currently has the
K144XV-100-K 2M module installed but my plans
are to transfer that to the new unit. I do not
use the K3 for 2M FM so there is no FM filter.
I use a Timewave Navigator for a one USB
connection to the confuser. The Navigator has a
very low noise USB Codec and six serial ports,
CAT, PTT, CW Winkey, RTTY (sure enuff FSK), Aux
RS232 (full RS232 great for checking/installing
new firmware in the KPA500) and a configuration
port for the Navigator itself. Using the
Navigator I have never had to re-cable to do
firmware updates to the K3 or the P3.
Together, the K3 and the Navigator integrate so
well together, I am anxious to see if the K3s
with its new interface does it all as well as
the current setup.
