Re: [Elecraft] [K3] Elecraft Support?
You are not alone John. I can only imagine the position they must be in with supply and employee issues. It does not excuse the lack of communication. I had an issue with my KIO3B. They did not have any replacement boards so I was told to send in mine and they would repair. This was in January when I sent it out. The only communication I have received has been their receipt acknowledgement and I have reached out a few times. Tough times !

Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft K3s, etc. bonding
Ok. I am sure I will get the wrath of God for going in this direction but here we go. I was licensed in 91 and have put together 2 average so contest stations with no grounds. None what so ever except power grounds. I have a bunch of equipment, not intentionally interconnected, that has had no issue in all that time. If I had seen something that led me to fix an issue I certainly would have. Safety ? Maybe. I am just not sure that the thousands of dollars that could be put into this type of grounding is necessary, in my part of the world. So, no grounds on lugs of any equipment, no grounds on tower (100') no grounding of coax. Aside lightning strikes, which I have had and not issue, what can I gain from spending the $$$ ? If someone can convince me I will consider.

Re: [Elecraft] OT: Ground rods and concrete

Re: [Elecraft] How do I generate a "Key Down" to tune an external 6m amp?
If I am not mistaken I think the "proper" way of tuning the amp is with a pulser or sending a string of dits at say 60wpm not a solid tone.

Re: [Elecraft] Bose Companion 2 and K3
I also use the Bose Companion II with not a hint of RFI. I am feeding from the rear Ext Spkr jack, I run 1500w on cw/rtty/phone with no issues. They sound great for both K3 audio and music. For their size they pack some punch. 73, Randy N1KWF On Tue, Jan 14, 2014 at 7:58 PM, Greg Mason wrote: > > I use these through the headphone jack to mitigate rf.

Re: [Elecraft] External speaker recommendation.....
I am currently using the Bose Companion2 Series 2. They sound really nice. They are roughly 3in.x 7in. and dual inputs so I can have the radio and my system sound card going into it without having to switch or have a second set of speakers.

Re: [Elecraft] Noise Cancelling Headphones
The Bose QC15's are very nice for sure. The price, as with all Bose products, is way too high. I use them for CW/ digital contests and the CM-500's for phone contests. I like the CM-500's very much. They are very comfortable but do not have the isolation that one would want in a multi environment.
