[Elecraft] Wherefore art thou, K3 (in CQWW)

2008-11-21 Thread g4zfe

K3 #128 will be on air from 9M2CNC in CQWW - SOAB HP.

Good luck to all. I hope the A/K values stay low to allow some East  
Coast US stations over the pole this year on 20m.

Unfortunately I have a few screws missing and but more importantly  
the mixer board is also missing!


K3/100 #1175 that arrived in the UK on Monday also had a missing mixer  
board so you are not alone! I reported it on Tuesday and hope to  
receive it soon.


You will be happy once the radio is built and on the air :-)

[Elecraft] Re: K3/s in ARRL CW Test?

2008-02-18 Thread g4zfe
Pleased to work a few other K3s in the ARRL DX contest. I was very  
surprised after answering VE3EY's 40m CQ that he came back telling me  
that my K3 sounded nice! Thank you Nick! Great Elecraft commaradie...


The K3 was superb during the contest especially on 40m with 300 Hz  
DSP. I am still very impressed by the strong signal handling. I was  
only running 100W to a stealth (1mm DX-Wire) 40/80m trapped Inverted L  
at 24 feet.


The K3 mojo is alive. I was pleased to work VP6DX on 40m CW on Sunday  
using my stealth setup. Great operators there (with great radios).

[Elecraft] Re: Band Limits - MARS ?

2007-12-19 Thread g4zfe

Hello Eric,

Excellent news on the program to unlock TX. Thank you.

Is the program also able to lock bands? For example, I would like to  
at some stage legally import my K3 into Thailand where 6m is not  
allowed. I would need to disable 6m TX/RX on my K3 before handing the  
radio over to the Thai authorities to check the radio.

We now have a simple Windows based utility program to unlock TX  
outside the U.S. limits for use on U.S. MARS and by those outside of  
the U.S.  Run it once and the rig is opened up. (It needs RS-232 /  
USB communications to the rig as usual.) It also has a button to  
re-enable the U.S. limits.

[Elecraft] K3 invoice

2007-11-25 Thread g4zfe

The invoices and shipping notifications are whizzing out the Elecraft door.

I ordered my K3 on May 1st and also received notification today that  
it will ship in the next 7 to 10 days.


After a long CQWW CW contest I am now feeling awake and happy with  
this news :-)


Thank you for the QSOs and now to check my logs to see how many K3s I worked!

[Elecraft] [K3] Shipping Update

2007-11-01 Thread g4zfe

Hello Eric,

I ordered my K3 on May 1st with a 50% deposit and I am now concerned  
about delivery and I would also appreciate more visibility on delivery  
dates versus order dates.


I am a contester and ordered my K3 with a view to using it in 9M2 for  
CQWW SSB and CQWW CW. CQW WW SSB has been and gone (my 756 Pro I had  
big IMD problems during my 20m single band entry) and now CQWW CW is  
looming near. There is no doubt that 3830 mailing list postings with  
comments on the K3's performance in CQWW CW will do wonders for your  
sales amongst contesters.

When I catch my breath some time next week, I'll try to start  
posting what approximate order dates we are shipping each week on
