Thanks Geoff. I guessed it must be a meter issue. The K2 has just gone on to pass its first powered up tests (where's my corkscrew? I must celebrate). The meter was a cheapy, bought to test motorbike magneto ignition :o) Hows things in the old country? 73 Jack VK2CJC / MM0AXL - Original

Maybe we should convince Elecraft to employ scantily clad buxom women in ads that talk about the exciting new case colors, the many knobs and lights and the like I like and buy Elecraft's products now, but this type advertising would prompt me to buy much more, maybe 2 or 3 K3s no matter what

Jack, Believe the DMM and refrain from using the analog ohmmeter because it apparently uses a high enough voltage for resistance measurements that it can turn on solid state devices and may even damage them. 73, Don W3FPR Jack wrote: Hi folks Just building my K2. Got as far as the first

[Elecraft] K3 in different colors?

Why not? How about offering the case in different colors? White, Gray, Black, Midnight Blue, Deep Red, Mauve? It would be a first in hamdom wouldn't it? I can't recall ever having a choice of color when buying ham gear. If we went with metallic finishes, then we could do brushed aluminum or

Just black works fine for me! It compliments my jeans and scruffy shirt quite nicely. If it came in different colors, I might have to buy an all new wardrobe to match my new accessory, and that would make the purchase of a K3 quite an overall expenditure. I might have to have a different

When it comes to reviews, I tend to focus on the bad ones as the good ones could simply represent someones feeling that they spent plenty of money on something, it must be good. When it comes to ham gear, a bad review without a call sign doesn't get much weight. I suppose the reviewer in this

As it is currently constructed, the K3 in finished in a variety of different textures. Black is a good color for minimizing those differences; other colors might not manage the task as well. 73, Steve NN4X On 2/26/08, Darwin, Keith [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Why not? How about offering the
