Re: [Elecraft] Upgrading K3
I assume you mean sub receiver? If so, yes you will need two of the new synthesizers. It's all in the FAQ from 2015 located here on the elecraft website: http://www.elecraft.com/manual/KSYN3A%20FAQ-ver-C-2.pdf Well worth the upgrade by the way!

Re: [Elecraft] Remote Operating Time Sync
Tune in to wwv and synchronize your clock. The jt modes will be fine even if you are a second or two off. Or get a gps and synch to the gps clock via nema. Use google and search on all your options. You could setup nptd on your mac and use a pps signal from a gps too.

Re: [Elecraft] FS: Billet Bronze Chrome K3/K3S A/B VFO Knobs / Pictures
No interest at $90 for these chrome plated brass billet knobs? How about $75 shipped to your door in the US? send an email off the list if interested.

Re: [Elecraft] does the K-Pod work with a K3 setup with a RemoteRig?
It is with the latest beta firmware... 5.56, I have tested it with an rrc box at the control end and it worked great for tuning, I didn't test the macro buttons however. Look at the release notes on the 5.56 firmware.
