[Elecraft] K3 speaker resonance problem
After a rather hectic month, I finally got my K3 on the air this afternoon. (Worked by coincidence another K3: WA7VHO)). But unfortunately my unit (from the kit) has a speaker resonance with the cabinet at about 700 Hz or so. (Not good for a CW op!) As others may have had this problem, could they share the likeliest screws to fuss with or case components to reposition slightly? -- 73 Allan K7GT ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 speaker resonance problem
I've seen N6XI tweak the resonance of his K3's speaker by slightly tightening or loosening one or more of the top screws that attach the speaker to the case.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 speaker resonance problem
Some have also added black tape to the top panel in the locations where it comes into contact with certain areas of the chassis.
