Re: [Elecraft] Should we expect something new in Dayton?
I believe the most important item to note is the “TX SAMPLE” jack on the rear panel. That has SDR written all over it.

Re: [Elecraft] Should we expect something new in Dayton?
Yeah, I'm content for now with my K3. But a K4 with a panadapter would definitely pique my interest. I hope it can still be available as a kit and reasonably priced :) - 73, Russ - W9RB -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/Should-we-expect-something-new-in-Dayton-tp7630265p7630293.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. __ 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
Re: [Elecraft] Should we expect something new in Dayton?
The blue in the display on the new amp would match a waterfall display on something. Perhaps a cabinet the same size of the new amp. I decided in January I was not going to buy another radio until Dayton.

Actually, Hara closed for good. It was awful the one time I was there for a US Air Force conflagration, they'd have been better off holding it in a hangar at WPAFB.

Re: [Elecraft] Should we expect something new in Dayton?
Surface mount actually is pretty easy once you do it a few times. In some cases it can actually be easier, there is none of the having to reform leads on components like when you are provided a 2.5mm lead spaced part to go in holes 5mm apart etc. All I use is my regular iron with a fine point tip some .5mm (.020") solder and a magnifying visor. It's just like going from the old point to point with tubes to PC boards and ICs, not harder just different. I think a lot of people are afraid to try it, but once yo uget the hand of doing it you will find it's almost easier.

Re: [Elecraft] Should we expect something new in Dayton?
IIRC I saw a photo of a K3S next to a KPA1500. It struck me that the KPA's enclosure was slightly larger than the K3S and I thought Hmm, maybe a K4 incorporating a P3 in a similar enclosure my be on the back burner :-). 73, Glen, VK1FB __ 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
