An S9+60db signal on the main receiver is not heard at all on the sub 
receiver at all.


Erm - can you give an example? My tired brain doesn't understand.

A really strong signal being received on one receiver does not "bleed 
through" to the other receiver, even though they share the exact same I.F.

OK, I understand (just)!

I guess I'll bite the bullet and pay for one on Monday - I would like to 
monitor two portions of 20m at the same time. Currently using my very 
capable TS-480SAT on 20m PSK / RTTY, must crank up the K3 :-)


I assume that I can use the same antenna for both receivers?

Yes, at least with the KAT3 installed.  I've not looked at a K3 +KRX3 
configuration without a KAT3.

You can always drive a linear amp with a QRP signal, but under FCC
rules, producing more than 480 watts out with 15W in is prohibited for
a type-accepted amplifier (15 db gain).

err, why not just build up another KPA-100 and leave it with the
KPA800?

Of course! Too much blood in my caffeine stream. But if there were, say, a
convenient attenuator pad that could be bypassed by a motivated amateur...

No reason, really, aside from cost (which might pale in comparison to the
KPA800!)

Mostly, I guess, I hope that any such amp will be as well integrated with
the K2 as the K3.

IIRC, "easily modified" was in the older rules, but that seems to only
apply to CB coverage now.

Yep.   I suspect the KPA100 is really necessary, though, since it's got
filtering approriate for that level of output power and I think there
might be a problem with just amplifying the QRP level signal to real
QRO, without adding the extra filtering.  I suspect other know the
details on this better than I.

   Mostly, I guess, I hope that any such amp will be as well integrated with
   the K2 as the K3.

Note that the KPA800/1500 was first shown with the K2, and was closely
integrated at that time.  

Rumor:  I've heard that the amp worked really well mostly, but there was a
problem that caused much failure of the expensive power devices.

It would work well with the K2, but it was designed to work with other 
popular rigs from ICOM, Yaesu, Kenwood, etc. as well. It is not 'closely 
integrated' in the way that the KPA100 is!

I asked Eric specifically why the amplifiers were delayed. Did they meet 
IMD goals? He said that there was only one reason: the K3.

Julius,

It is a good guess that the new QRP amp will be there on display, along with
all the other gear.  The booth is larger than before so that will be nice.

You can come and watch me build my KX1 - I will be there with a live
building demo at the booth, I just arranged that with Wayne and Eric
yesterday.  Yes, you will find a lot of great Elecraft owners and
prospective owners to chat with.

small items and ordered big ones from their booth. And gotten to see all
