[Elecraft] Dust cover for the KX3
I've been working with Wayne at Elecraft on a dust cover for the KX3. Prototypes have been sent back and forth, and a design is almost finalized. The paddle assembly will be an option, and I'd like to know if there are those who would -not- purchase the paddles, and therefore would not want an opening in the cover for them. We'll address a potential padded case next. It's a complex issue, with many concepts of what "extras" might be added over and above the KX3. Stay tuned, and 73!

[Elecraft] Private Sales of used Elecraft Rigs
Payment certainly isn't a problem with PayPal, but without a PayPal account it can be problematic. Foreign ... to the US ... money orders or even bank checks are extremely difficult to process. For example, a check drawn on a Panama bank would have cost $75 to deposit into her account. It's also likely related to a general lack of knowledge about overseas packaging and how to fill out the customs forms. The blanks on the forms are small and difficult to write in. There are two forms to be used, depending on the size of the package and a few other variables. I do the shipping for Rose and she receives orders from all over the world, so I've become reasonably familiar with the procedure, but it's still a "task". The average transit time seems to be from two to as much as four weeks. Israel is the exception. It can take several months for a package to be delivered there. Probably more than you wanted to know ... 73!

[Elecraft] KPA500 "covers" and "cases"
A bit of clarification is in order. I've noticed that many non-US customers use the word "cover" when asking about my carrying cases. Phil has the first KPA500 dust cover, and he's confirmed that the "fit" is correct, so they are now available. Gary has a DXpedition case with the foam protective end caps for his K3. He has also asked about a matching carrying case for his field test KPA500. A DXpedition-type case for the KPA500 is in the works, but won't be available for some time. Considerable effort and cost is involved in developing a correctly fitting set of end caps for the KPA500. 73!

[Elecraft] K3 TX spurs?
I think I recall a thread about spurs being produced by a K3's TX, but didn't pay enough attention at the time. I've since become aware of a K3 that appeared to have two spurs showing up on my P3. They were about 30db down from his very strong carrier on 7031 KHZ, and equally spaced about 1 KHZ on either side. They both could be "tuned in" and copied as individual signals. I was surprised when I asked the fella what his rig was and he told me it is a K3. (;-) I have -not- seen these spurs appear on other strong signals since this event, and follow-up tests with him have not shown the spurs ... but ... I've not seen his signal as strong as it was at the time. There's no doubt they were "real", but what might be the cause? Is / was the problem with his K3, my K3 or my P3. Thoughts? 73!

Re: [Elecraft] P3 cursors won't go up more then 200 MHz
hi Jim, sorry I've been not clear enough to explain my problem. It is the CENTER frequency I'm talking about not the SPAN. For example: receiving frequency is at 432.418 MHz (German beacon) and P3 has been switched on together with K3. P3 displays the same center frequency as the K3 dial shows. Now you tap 'Marker A' an switch it on. Displayed on P3's screen is 'Marker A 432418'. As soon as you dial the P3 select the P3's display shows 'Marker A 20'. You only can now dial to a frequency BELOW 20, there's no chance dialing mor than 20. If you now try qsying via P3 selct (tap to QSY) the K3 won't follow. It is fixed to K3's frequency. Sorry about being not clear enough, but my English is too poor to make the explanation clearer. Hope you understand my problem anyway ;-).

[Elecraft] P3 cursors won't go up more then 200 MHz
hi folks, just preparing everything for the IARU-region 1 UHF/SHF-contest (10/2-3). While testing I was not able to set the P3's cursors beyond 200 MHz. Anybody show me the right way to exceed this frequency limit please. I'm sure this must be a software bug between operator's ears. Everything else (K3/10 #1935, Kuhne TR432H transverter) working together fine since years. Only the brandnew P3 #323 won't follow ... ;-( 73 Wolf DK1IP __ 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
