I LOVE my K3 … It’s the best radio I’ve owned (and I’ve owned many/most/all of the very best)., except on AM where my old Orion/Orion II (the ones I sold to buy the K3) were much better … but that’s a different issue. (And E’craft won’t “formally" deal with it). Everything else about the K3 is FAR superior. After, I don’t know 8-9 years of ownership .. ALL (and I do mean ALL) hardware/software updates have been applied, including the new K3S boards that have been made available. So it’s as up to date as possible. Still — the age old issue of “birdies” has been an elusive problem to solve.
Just for the record .. I have 2x KYSYN3A’s installed, a subreciever, and the other usual updated stuff. I’ve fiddled for hours with the birdie removal routines in firmware. And yet — they’re everywhere. Most are low enough in signal strength to ignore — but there are many LOUD ones here and there on 80/4020/and elsewhere that are just “there”. Nothing really helps. I just spent an evening fiddling with cable placement AGAIN, to no avail. I’ve followed carefully all of the cable routing instructions provided by Elecraft. To no real effect. So my question is — has anyone found a SOLUTION?? I’m considering sending my radio to CA, but I'm concerned that after spending the $$$ to do that I won’t be any better off. To be clear — this isn’t a deal killer by any stretch … just looking for input.
