RE: [Elecraft] K3 board - lack of modification version control
It says right there on the site that all Rev B boards have the update. Read the rev of your board and that is your version control. What more do you really want? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dave G4AON Sent: Friday, March 28, 2008 2:15 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] K3 board - lack of modification version control Mike Would you care to elaborate? In the past when I worked for one of the large European manufacturers they had very strict version control, when a change was implemented the updated version number was written in black marker on the board, with the board number followed by /01, etc. In the case of military kit, or kit that may be used by the military, there had to be a mod state plate on the outside of the equipment too. I received a replacement PA and driver board from Elecraft and there was no way to distinguish the updated driver board from the earlier one! The PA was easy as it had two resistors in parallel in place of the single ones at (I guess) R4 R5... But no markings that were obvious to me. 73 Dave, G4AON -- They did. ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 board - lack of modification version control
All the boards I have seen have an issue number and a date. Not it may be these are not updated. For example, I have a revision A transverter interface KXV3. I assume (possibly incorrectly as I have the original board) that the Rev B board is marked as such. Not having version control is such a fundamental mistake that I am sure Elecraft would not make it.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 board - lack of modification version control
I noticed that one of the two boards of my KXV3 is marked Rev A and the other is marked Rev B. The trouble is I could find nothing that tells which is the Main board that was mentioned on the upgrade page. Doesn't matter anyway now I guess. I forgot which one is which, and now I've installed my KPA3 and can't see them.
