[Elecraft] Would a matching speaker be nice??

2012-04-20 Thread redtarga4
I wonder if Elecraft might consider offering a nice, matching, external speaker 
for the K2/3 line?. It's nice to have the audio coming straight out in front of 
you not bouncing out from the top cover. I have always owned the matching 
speaker for any of the rigs I've owned over the past 45 years. Anyone else out 
there think the same way?

[Elecraft] Delay in RF/Audio output on my K3

2012-04-10 Thread redtarga4
I've started to notice when I first turn on my K3/100 (#6131). there appears to 
be a delay in reaching full RF output. I start calling a station and notice 
almost no RF or audio but after a minute or so, the power is full scale and the 
Audio level is working fine. Any suggestion why this may be happening?? I have 
several microphones and it happens with all of them. It does not happen on CW.. 
Just SSB.

Thanks in advance..

[Elecraft] k3/100 #6131 is on the air!

2012-01-10 Thread redtarga4
Just got home from a long weekend away and connected the K3/100 to my computer. 
Everything went as planned except I couldn't get the radio to enable the 100 
watt PA. After a close look, I realized I pinched one of the wires that 
connects to the circuit breaker between the PA board  chassis. After 
correcting my mistake, I was able to get the PA to work. I've played around 
with the audio a bit. I ordered the MH2 hand microphone to take to Barbados in 
9 days. It really sounds good. I have an old Astatic DN86 on a G Stand I'm 
going to hook up. Can anyone suggest a good base microphone?? I'm very pleased 
to have selected the K3. It's really nice to own a piece of gear Made In 
America

Looking forward to many hours of enjoyable operating.

[Elecraft] K3/100 kit #6131 Has arrived

2012-01-04 Thread redtarga4
My K3/100 Kit arrived yesterday. I spent several hours going over everything. I 
started the assembly and after 4 hours I'm up to page 44. So far so good.. I'm 
really impressed with the quality and how everything has gone together. The 
parts are really sorted well and the instructions are a pleasure to follow.  
I'm going to spend a little while on it this afternoon. I look forward to 
getting on the air with it. The serial number is 6131.

Thanks again for all the help from list members.

2012-01-04 Thread redtarga4
Just wrapped up assembly of my K3. I did the basic calibration and so far so 
good. I'll take a brake tonight and wrap it up in the morning. Kind of fun 
working with the small hardware when your almost 64..My eyes aren't what they 
used to be.. Everything went as it should have. It sure looks like a great 
piece of gear. Thanks to all who replied to my messages. Look forward to 
talking on the air.

[Elecraft] (no subject)

2012-01-03 Thread redtarga4
Good morning everyone, I first want to thank everyone who responded to my 
e-mail on how long it takes to assemble a K3. You were all very helpful. My 
K3/100 kit just arrived. It's serial number 6131. I just spent the past hour 
going over the assembly manual. Everything looks straight forward. I'm going to 
un-pack every thing and give it an inventory. I must say, I'm really impressed 
with the great packing job. I'm in no rush to get it assembled. I will take my 
time and double check everything. I've waited a long time for a radio like this 
and look forward to joing the club of K3 users. The radio will get it's first 
test the week of jan 18th from Barbados. Look for 8P9AP on both phone  CW.

Thanks again everyone..
