Re: [Elecraft] Belt clip for KX3 after you install the 2 or 4 Meter module?
I still have my 12" K&E Log-Log Duplex Vector rule, here on the desk, and I use it for a few things for which I can't remember the equations but I do remember the motions. Every so much quicker than looking functions up in the HP48GX books. I mourn the final demise of the HP41CX. The case for the rule is long gone. 73, Fred K6DGW - Northern California Contest Club - CU in the 2014 Cal QSO Party 4-5 Oct 2014 - www.cqp.org On 8/14/2014 7:45 PM, Don Wilhelm wrote: I still have my 12 inch Post slide rule, but I no longer have it on my belt.

Now, it does not need to be a KXPA100-2, I would be happy with something like a KXPA80-2 or some other reasonable power level boost. So, Elecraft, how about a 80 to 100 watt 2-meter brick-style amp that works with the KX3 with 2-meters and the K3 with 2-meters or with my 2 meter Yaesu HT. Yes, I know these can be bought elsewhere but there is something special about the "Made By Elecraft" label!! 73, phil, K7PEH __ 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] Belt clip for KX3 after you install the 2 or 4 Meter module?
Now that I've installed the 2 meter module in my KX3, are there plans in the works at Elecraft to provide a nice belt clip for my KX3, so I can carry the radio with the antenna held vertically? Oh yeah, and how about a KXPA100-2 amplifier? I'm just kidding.
