[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement
Good Evening, The summer has passed quickly; tomorrow will be the last nets of the season. Conditions have been improving slightly over the last month. A stream of solar wind is due on the 23rd, the first day of autumn. That will help conditions for the rest of the week. It has been foggy and cloudy lately but I've still had a chance to see the purple sunsets. The banding is quite noticeable too. Humidity has hit 100% a few times this week. Sometimes the change is very quick. One moment I'll be splitting wood and the next I'm soaked through. Then my glasses steam up and I can't see the wedge. It is time to throw wood around until I can see again. Please join us on: 14050 kHz at 2200z Sunday (3 PM PDT Sunday) 7047 kHz at z Monday (5 PM PDT Sunday) 73, Kevin.

[Elecraft] K3s problem
I have had my K3s since January. I use it exclusively on CW. Twice in the past ten days, in the middle of a QSO, I can hear nothing when I stop sending. No background noise. No signal. The quick fix is to turn the unit off, then right back on. There is at least an inch of cooling all around the radio. I haven't ever used it on digital. In other words, I don't think it is a heat problem. Any thoughts? thanks, Dave, K4TO __ 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 Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
Re: [Elecraft] K4 Capabilities on 630 Meters?
It can do either. You can route the low-power TX signal to either an external jack or an internal transverter. Similarly, there are both internal and external transverter receive connections.

Re: [Elecraft] K4 Capabilities on 630 Meters?
Hi Wayne, Your email implies that the K4 no longer has the capability to transmit a few dBm on 630 meters to drive an external 630 meter amplifier. Does the K4 now require an external transverter, unlike the K3 that provides a few dBm of 630 meter TX output? tks 73 Frank W3LPL > Forwarded Message > Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K4 Question > Date: Thu, 19 Sep 2019 12:17:54 -0700 > From: Wayne Burdick > To: Elecraft Reflector > > Joel, > > The K4 will receive on all LF and MF bands down to 100 kHz.

Re: [Elecraft] K4 Question
I certainly hope it does have a 70MHz capability, preferably, without taking up a transverter slot.
