I worked on 10m SSB with 1 watt the other night. It's amazing what you can do
when the bands are open.

There's one roofing filter option module, the KXFL3. It includes
bandwidths of 500 and 1500 Hz for CW and DATA modes, and 3000 Hz for
SSB mode.

Guys;
The KRC2 Config program has problems. That is one of the reasons it is still
classified as beta. We are trying to line up the resources to fix the problems,
and will have something much better as soon as we can.
In the meantime, there is a detail that might actually help. When the Config

Neoklis,
Did you order the KXV3A option?
If yes, a resistor comes with that option. But your NEW K3 should not
need this resistor mod as it is only for older units (2009 and prior).

Let me pendantic here. The configuration program connects to the KRC2
when the program is started, but when I press the 'Send to KRC2' button,
it shows an error message saying it cannot connect.
I beleive this is the same behavior that some other on the mail list
have seen.
In all cases, I'm usi
To be clear, I have no issues with interfacing the KRC2 with external
devices.
The only issue I've had is using the Windows-based program provided on
the Elecraft web site to attempt to configure the behavior of the KRC2.
It always fails to connect to the KRC2, no matter what settings I try,

Correction ...
I have had issues with my KRC2 much of it is the poor operations manual
and interfacing to the K3. Jack at Elecraft and Gary have been great to
work with. Many of my problems appear to have been from jumper issues.
The documentation needs some major work in the way of examples of how to
hook
Excellent news indeed!

Hi Barry,
If you are interested in a 2T H-Mode Mixer to modify other equipment, a
different parts kit to be assembled is available.
I have studied and applied mods to different commercial equipment:.. ICOM

Robert,
It confirms that there is something damaged in the KPA100 wattmeter
circuit, which includes more than just D16 and D17.
However, D16 and D17 are the most probable failure points, so start there.

Re your advice 2 October

Checked the output on external wattmeter at 20W power setting. Output is
100W.
Removed KPA 100 and checked K2 output on 1,2,5,10 & 15watt settings.
Output is close to setting and transmit bargraph display shows linear

Does this confirm faulty D16 and D17?
