Re: [Elecraft] [K3S] KREF3MDKT
Mike, Concentrate on the "as needed" - not all need the resistor mod. The TCXO has not changed. 73, Don W3FPR On 1/22/2017 3:05 PM, Mike Harris wrote: Hmm.

Re: [Elecraft] [K3S] KREF3MDKT
The modification is not needed *unless* your adding KSYN3A's to a K3 with a second receiver and a 2m transverter. If you are building a K3s then you do not need the mod.
