Re: [Elecraft] K2 versus K3 specs
I really enjoy my K2/100. I use it weekly for CWT’s, MST’s & SST’s with N1MM+. I usually operate the tests barefoot but sometimes run a KPA1500 with the K2. The shift/width controls are not as versatile as my K3S but I don’t need em for the 1 hr CW tests. Computer control of the K2 and K3s is essentially the same. I built the K2/100 myself and, as Wayne said, there is some additional fulfillment when using a radio that you assembled yourself. 73//k5mm/ron Sent from my iPad > On Jul 14, 2022, at 5:30 PM, Fred Jensen wrote: > > Complex, multivariate problem Brian, sensitivity being only one variable, > and some of the variables are very subjective.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 and Accessories For Sale
I have an Elecraft K3/100-F for sale-the radio is factory assembled and I'm the original owner. The radio is in excellent cosmetic condition and has never been operated out of the shack, around pets or smoke. I recently shipped the radio to Elecraft for migration to a K3S, updates and a checkout. The radio was returned yesterday and is in a sealed box. A letter from Elecraft, dated 24 April 17, states the radio "meets or exceeds all factory specifications". Elecraft options and/or updates include the following: 1. KPA3-F: Antenna Tuner 2. KXV3B-F: RX Ant, IF Out (for P3), Pre-Amps & Transverter Interface (The upgraded board used in the K3S). 3. KSYN3AUPGD-F: Synthesizer board (The upgraded board used in the K3S). 4. 250hz CW Filter. 5. Numerous minor Elecraft installed and documented updates too numerous to list including the "KPOD Ready" modification that provides power to the KPOD via the RJ45 Jack on the bottom panel. The firm price is $2,000 plus shipping. I also have available a PR6 pre-amplifier (replaced by the new KX3VB-F above), the original K3 synthesizer and KX3VA interface boards. Finally, available for sale is a MicroHam Micro KEYER MKII, DB37 cable and other related accessories including keypad and iLink cable for the SteppIR controller. This equipment is also in excellent condition-I'm the original owner. Please inquire regarding pricing. 73//k5mm/ron __ 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
[Elecraft] K3 & 3 amps
My K3 key line runs to a Radio Shack breakout box that connects 3 amplifiers, including a legal limit 6M unit, that are selected via a mechanical switch. I believe I could have simply divided the Key line via two Y connectors to the amps directly and skipped the breakout box if only only one Amp was powered up at a time. 73//k5mm/ron __ 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] Elecraft Service
Several weeks ago I sent my K3, #1665, back to Elecraft for production updates since Oct '08. My K3 was factory assembled and has most options. Elecraft Service, Rene K6XA, did an excellent job. The radio now equals or exceeds current production specifications and is essentially new again. It was obviously handled with care and returned in the same cosmetic condition as sent. I believe the cost for this service was very reasonable-I couldn't be more satisfied. 73 k5mm/ron __ 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
