Re: [Elecraft] K-3 4629

[Hisashi T Fujinaka]

Looks like there's a discount on Fred's book. I think that's a great
thing to get if you don't have it already. I have two of them (two
different versions.)

Ralph,

If I may suggest, download and read the manual from the Elecraft web site, if 
you haven't already. Also, get a copy of Fred Cady's, K7EX, excellent book on 
the K3. It will help you understand the ins and outs of your transceiver.


Also, the two pre-amps are new to the K3S, if I remember correctly. Our 
older-generation K3s don't have them.


Enjoy your new rig! I love mine!

Re: [Elecraft] K-3 4629

[Cady, Fred]

There are actually 3 preamps.  20 db (17m - 6m only) in the KXV3B and a 10 db 
in the main and a 10 db in the sub.

Cheers,

Fred KE7X

Are there really two preamps or just a two step gain setting?

Ralph,

Look at the K3S manual for the Preamp1 and preamp2 operation.  It only 
applies to the K3S and a K3 with the KXV3B upgrade.

The K3 has Preamp 1 and 2 on 6 - 17 meters if you install/upgrade to the 
KXV3B transverter interface.
