[Elecraft] K3S Options - Install in what order to make it all easier?
My apologies if this is a FAQ. I've been looking all through the archives and can't seem to find an answer, so I'm turning to the good folks of the Elecraft reflector for some guidance. I'm considering my first home HF station radio upgrade since 2000, and I'm looking at the K3S. The number of options are overwhelming at first, so I've been reading and trying to narrow down what I'd need to get started. I chase DX and do some contesting (all modes), so I'm thinking I'll get some tighter filters, I know I'd like to be able to run an RX antenna for low band work, possibly look at the sub-RX option as well for listening to the other side of a split operation, etc. Here's my main question: If I'm building from kit, are there any particular options I'd want to make sure I install first as to not make things more difficult later? For example, if I add filters now, then add the sub-RX later, am I making things more difficult than if I added the sub-RX first? Would I be putting myself in the position of having to tear the roof off the house to just upgrade the kitchen? (Sorry, best analogy I got at the moment.)

Re: [Elecraft] K3S Options - Install in what order to make it all easier?
I'd like to thank Craig, W6WL at Elecraft Support; Hank, K7HP; and Don, W3FPR for taking the time to write me with some very detailed and thoughtful responses to my questions about installing which options and in what order on a new K3S build. I now feel more confident about how I should proceed. As I told Craig this morning: "It's this kind of response from both Elecraft employees and the user community that makes the decision to become an Elecraft customer an easy choice."

Re: [Elecraft] Ham Shack Arrangements - just a little OT
I've really enjoyed the conversation about shack and desktop setups, as I'm about to get into the garage, get behind the saw, and build a desktop equipment shelf. I've been talked out of building vertical supports, thanks to this list. So now I'm trying to future-proof my design. Eventually, I'd hope to have a complete K-Line. So, I'm thinking I'd just add up the front panel widths of all the K-Line components and perhaps add an inch or two.

[Elecraft] Took Some Lightning Damage Last Night
Hi All: It looks like we took an EMP hit at home from nearby lightning just last night. The XYL was up with the baby and said the whole house lit up sometime after midnight. So far, it appears I've lost a TV, laser printer, the shack PC, all the outdoor security cameras, and my internet service. As for radio gear, my Astron VS-35M power supply was showing low voltage output, but a power recycle corrected that. The Elecraft K3 was actually powered off and disconnected from the antennas, but it was throwing errors when I powered it up. I assume that was from the connection to the computer. I did a soft reset and it seems to have recovered, but I need to do more thorough testing. The KX3 was only connected to power and was powered off, and it seems to be OK so far. The other ham radios seem to be OK, except for an old 1990s-era Radio Shack scanner that likely can't be replaced. I may crack that one open and see if there's something obvious that can be repaired. Any advice for what other checks I should perform on my house and equipment (especially my K3 and KX3) to check for hidden gremlins before I start calling the insurance companies and getting the claims process rolling? --- Chuck Milam, N9KY n...@arrl.net __ 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] KX3 Utility Segmentation Fault in Linux
Whoa, a Linux question? Excellent. Looks the HarfBuzz shared libraries got updated (probably along with your window manager of choice) and the kx3util needs to be rebuilt (relinked? Not certain of the proper dev-speak here) to reference the newer libraries. (Sorry if I'm preaching to the choir.) See if you can get the core file to drop (you may need to do a "ulimit -c unlimited" to ensure you get one) and analyze it with gdb for more information. I wonder if you can do a workaround and keep the libharfbuzz library files that kx3util is looking for installed (maybe in /usr/local or somewhere else handy?) I'd test this myself, but I confess I gave up tilting at the windmills years ago and use Win 10 for ham radio applications. I do keep my Linux boxes around for network and vulnerability management.

[Elecraft] Static Discharge Through K-Pod
Greetings, All! I'm getting static electricity shocks through my K-Pod case, and I need some suggestions for mitigation. Background: I keep my K-Pod on my operating desk just to the right of the shack computer mouse. I've noticed when I walk over to the desk and grab the mouse, the K-Pod will beep. Further investigation shows I'm getting static electricity discharge from my finger through the K-Pod, this morning I even noticed an arc from my pinky finger to the K-Pod case. When the K-Pod beeps, the D1 and D2 lights will cycle. The shack is carpeted, and I have a rolling chair on one of those plastic chair mats (which can probably go away if necessary,) I suspect that mat is probably contributing to the static problem. Obviously, I don't want static electricity discharging through my K-Pod and then through my K3. I'd welcome any ideas for static mitigation strategies. I was thinking some sort of grounded mouse/keyboard mat, which used to be more common, but seem hard to find these days. 73, Chuck Milam, N9KY n...@arrl.net __ 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] Longer K-Pod cable?
Bob: I made one to allow it to reach around the back of the desk and then underneath to the keyboard tray, so the K-Pod is right next to my computer mouse--very handy. Make sure you get the wiring correct, as W3PFR points out, pin 1 must not be connected, else you may get some "interesting" results. I ordered a 6P6C cable, cut off one end, then crimped on my own connector with the pin 1 wire cut back and therefore disconnected. If you do this, be sure to mark the cable ends, as noted in the K-Pod manual: *"If you disconnect the wire at only one end, be sure that end is plugged into your K3S or K3."* (p. 19) --- Chuck Milam, N9KY n...@arrl.net On Thu, Apr 19, 2018 at 8:16 AM, Bob Novas wrote: > Can I just makeup a 4 wire cable that is longer than the cable supplied > with > the K-Pod?
