Hi Bill Yes, I was using headphones. I will do further tests with the internal 2 tone generator and see if I still get the oscillation. Unfortunately I have very good hearing so every pip and squeak I can hear. Even with the sidetone running I can hear that mysterious relay resonance when keyi

[Elecraft] K3 NR in deversity mode

2010-05-04 Thread Mike Scott
I know that independent Rx control of NR was added some time ago. It would be useful in Diversity mode if there was a way to adjust NR in both receivers simultaneously. Maybe I am in the minority here... Mike Scott - AE6WA Tarzana, CA (DM04 / near LA) NAQCC 3535 K3-100 #508 / KX1 #1311

Yes of course, I know. However there is NOT a click free MP, not even the ones the claim is "fixed". They still click however of course much less. / Jim - On 2010-05-04 11:22, Tom W8JI wrote: > Some people always want to believe they magically have the only FT1000 > series radio that never

W5JAW has a click free MP but he says making it totally click free required much more work than just the common modifications - the fix included a multi-stage ALC modification. Two comments from Jim: "As I told you some time back, I worked real hard on optimizing the keying waveform on my rig. I
