That cable is for inserting the mojo.

The Allen wrench is needed to remove the VFO knob to reveal the secret
mojo input connector.

Please do not share this information with non-Elecrafties.

Welcome to the family, Franz.

[Elecraft] TMp Cable and Allen Wrench Envelope

2009-10-28 Thread Franz Nieberding
Hi all,
I am a proud new owner of a K3, which was handcarried by a friend to Europe. 
After a week or so he sent me two little envelopes, one with a TMP cable, one 
with a Allen wrench. I couldn't find a hint what to do with these little parts, 
are they a sparepart/tool for just in case or did I miss something and they are 
needed to bring the nice new toy up to speed? Maybe somebody can tell me, 
please.
