Yes, downloaded it, has everything on your iPhone in one place.
No need to take a manual with you into the field for FD or a DXpedition!!
Firmware dates up to 4.22
Its not free but at 0.59 p well worth it.
I also have the k3 programmer's guide App.

I love the small cost of these apps - it works so well, because there are so

Hi all
Changing HI/LO, SHIFT/WIDTH produce a few Hz change in the tunning

Hello All,
On November 24, 2010 while tuning around on the low end of 80 Meter , I heard a

stopped I heard
A faint signal calling CQ CQ , He was a bit off frequency so I pushed the auto

Mike,
Remember that the Hi Cur messages are from the base K2. They can be
caused by difficulty in driving the KPA100, or a problem with the KPA100
low pass filter or the wattmeter. Check the wattmeter calibration first.
If the wattmeter is good, then disconnect the power from the KPA100 and
Rev 4.22 firmware is still beta. You will need to get it from

I just decided to run the K3 on CW for the CQWW CW with the AL-811H amp.
I have used the K3 with amp on ssb and rtty. No apparent problems.
First time on CW, though.
I notice that relay on the amp doesn't sound the same as when I was using
the amp with the MP.right at the 8ms setting.
May I suggest another macro:
SWT13;UPB5;SWT11;BW0100;SWT11;SWH13;
And it's toggleable - you turn the split on and off by tapping the same key.

My preferred way of doing this is a macro:

I have seen this issue caused by rf induction (when using an amp) on the
Kusb cable (If you have pc connected).
A ferrite snap on with the cable wound through the snap-on ferrite as
many times as will stop this issue.
I also fitted a Coilcraft RS-232 filter between the K3 and the cable

You should not need to adjust the delay. Connect Key Out from the

Adrian,
While that is a fix, the actual problem is the level of RF in the shack.
If it creates problems such as that, it makes me wonder what other
problems may be created as well.
The antenna balance (and/or use of effective baluns), the proximity of
the antenna to the shack, and rf on the
Mike,
The fact that you have no HiCur warnings working onto a known good dummy
load says that the problem is somewhere in your antenna system.
On the chirp issue, I have no immediate answers. Normally that does
not occur with the new T/R switch design (blue toroids).

You have obtained a better than normal adjustment - normally 008 and

somewhere in the manual.
I would guess that the 2.4 volts is OK. That may change when you finish
the power calibration. Connect R6 (47 ohms

Anyway, since I changed AGC-F to AGC-S or even better AGC-off, I have
