Re: [Elecraft] K3 RX below 500 kc/s
For very slow data modes. A pal used 100W to a low antenna (probably a few mW erp) and several minutes per character, in a few Hz channel, worked a guy several hundred miles away. He is looking to temperature control the crystals in his rig and pc.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 RX below 500 kc/s
Might be a good idea for down the road to include 2200 meters (135.7-137.8kc), 1750 meters (160-190kc) & 600 meters (495-515kc) as some countries already have those bands as Amateur bands. There are groups in the US working to get all three bands as Amateur Bands. The ARRL is one of them. Frequency stability is extremely important for operating on those LF & MF bands.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 RX below 500 kc/s
Hi Jim, I looked into this. A small percentage of K3s would be able to tune below 500 kHz as-is (to 400 or 450 kHz), but most would require a synthesizer board modification. The original design was not intended to go below this level. 73, Wayne N6KR On Mar 31, 2009, at 9:57 PM, Jan Erik Holm wrote: > This was on the agenda a while ago.
