[Elecraft] K4 split audio
Just got my K4 back from Elecraft after having the tip of my Paddle plug breaking off inside the socket. So I’ll just now learning the rig. Question on audio adjustments while operating split. Is there a menu I have not found that will allow adjusting audio gain separately for the main and sub receivers? When DXing, I find with both set at the same level that the loud pileups is overwhelming while trying to simultaneously listen for a weak DX station.

[Elecraft] KX3 mic bias
I am getting no audio into my KX3 from a MH3 hand mic. All connections and components in the MH3 check good to the best of my ability. I’m measuring about 1.7vdc mic bias. Seems low to me but I can’t find a spec anywhere. Does anyone know what the mic bias from the KX3 should be?

[Elecraft] Oh Crap
I received my Ship Group 3 Elecraft K4; in the middle of an across country move. So it remained in the box until this past weekend. While setting up, in error I plugged my 1/4” tip/ring/ground paddle connector into the 1/4” KEY Jack on the back of the rig instead of the correct PADDLE jack. When I pulled the plug out of the KEY jack, the tip of the 1/4” plug broke off and is now lodged inside the KEY jack. It looks as if I will need to open the cabinet in order to extract the tip piece. I can’t find any online photos of an open K4. Looks as if I should open the top. Has anyone out there had the top cover off? Any advice or precautions I should be aware of?
