This question is one I have been asking annually at the Elecraft booth at Hamcom in Dallas for the last 2 years. I will be asking again on Friday. The last information given was in jun 2008 when I was told "availability in Jan 2009", heard no dates since! Based on this I didnt order the high spec reference for either of my K3.

I have been pushing for this for a long time as it would be nice to be able to feed my 10MHz Rubidium standard into J3 to get near precise calibration. I suspect that the problem is due to the internal reference oscillator of all our K3s being different. Although the KREF3 schematic shows the oscillator to be on 49.380 MHz, we all adjust this during the K3 calibration procedure. (Mine is on 49.379744) I could be wrong, but I shall await Wayne's response. 73 de David G4DMP ______________________________________________________________ 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
