And has anyone noticed that the front panel indicators on the Alpha amp
shown in the recent ads seem to show 1500 watts out, with pretty close
to 2500 volts and 0.6 amps on the meters. WOW! !500 watts RF out for

Hi,
I want to upgrade my K3 with the KAT3 and the 400hz filter for the 2nd

Also I have a KFL3A-1.8K that I don't strictly need, so if you need
this, I'd be happy to do a part exchange.

I think that those of us who are not involved in MARS need an education
about what you guys are doing.
When I was in Army MARS about 35 years ago, we had no real traffic to handle
at all. All we did was training. This was to be prepared - in case.
I would think that the need for MARS (sadly) has

1.924. The K3 reported as being out of band. It will not allow ANY
transmissions above 1.9 MHz. (CW or SSB).. I cannot find where to
correct the settings for this..
Any help appreciated..

Unfortunately, my investigative work started only after the Net closed down.
But yes, David, someone should be able to document his transmissions in the
future. I'll look tonight to see if I jotted down his call at the time.

Department of Defense (DoD) Instruction 4350.02 dated 12/23/2009 changed the

Regardless of FCC requirements, it is not feasible or desirable to
modify the KPA500 for lower power drive with a 10W exciter.
Any modification of the input network to the KPA500 will seriously
degrade the input SWR to the amplifier and also will put the KPA500

In ECOM we have alternate frequencies for just such occurrences. If the
offender does not respond to a polite query to cease and desist we move to
