[Elecraft] K3 bail height
I can't help you with the bail height, but if the bands are typical dead (sparsely populated), consider using the SCAN function. Just sit back and let the rig do the work.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 bail height
That was going to be my suggestion until you beat me to it. I was measuring the bail projection from the bottom of the feet and find it is 1.75 inches, so a 0.5 inch thick piece of something (wood, plastic, paperback book, etc) under the front feet will produce the requested result. That is too small to even consider a bail. 73, Don W3FPR S Sacco wrote: Keith - If you need it lowered that much, perhaps just put something under the front feet? 73, Steve NN4X Is there anyone out there interested in making a lower height bail, say 30 mm or 1.125" lower ??

[Elecraft] K3 bail height
After owning my K3 for over 6 months now I still find the height of the bail annoying. Is there anyone out there interested in making a lower height bail, say 30 mm or 1.125" lower ?? As it stands it gives me a pain in the wrist tuning around, and I spend a lot of time tuning around as here in Western Australia there certainly isn't too much to hear on ANY band at present!! -- Keith VK6XH / VK6DXR K3, 2 x K2's and KX1 Chairman WIA VK6 Advisory Committee.
