Wayne,
Considering these requests from Lance:
1) Since there is only the one antenna connection for HF/6m,
probably one needs a RF switched preamp or using two coax relays to
bypass the preamp when transmitting. Since Lance and I probably
would be running external power amps this is not

You show us what the 817 looks like here (in the big table...just
scroll down a little to see the table and then to near the bottom for
the 817): http://www.elecraft.com/K2_perf.htm
I know the KX3 isn't finalized but it must be pretty close...it's
Ft817 was past decade technology. I once used it but eventually replaced it
with k2. Ft817 receives everything but difficult to select anything. There is
also no built in atu and speech compressor in ft817.
Ft817 was a popular qrp rig but it is now the time for its glorious retirement.

Johnny,
Maybe, but the FT-817 doesn't need anything except maybe the CW filter; if all
you're interested in is CW on 80-10 and don't ever intend to hook a transverter
to it, the out of box K2 is fine. I have both, so I have the option of using
them for different purposes; the 817 is my go

The ability to work PSK and RTTY without a computer is SO cool...
I was just wondering if there are plans or any discussion on allowing a
portion of the P3 screen to show the K3 Text decode data for cw, RTTY,
and PSK31. I always assumed that would

Hi Doug,
The KX3's RX performance numbers are exceptional, but only one unit
has been through the full test suite. After we've tested several,
we'll post more details. If the numbers hold, it should easily be in
the top
If you can see the board impressions in the coax, it's toast. Replace it.
You didn't say what kind of coax it is, but 9913 is very easily crushed.
According to Mosley, the maker of many military antennas, that's why the
military doesn't use it on the ground or in the ground. They use RG213,

That information is probably rather dated.
Wayne,
If you would be so kind, how does K1 K2 K3 KX1 compare to each other
and the rig of the day the '817 which seems so popular at the moment.

Hi to the group,
On a similar subject, could the P3 screen be used to display some information
from the K3 (for exemple the sub-receiver status) ?
Best regards

Hi TR,
Eventually we'll have detailed comparison charts for the KX3 vs. other
small radios. I wouldn't put the K3 in this chart, because it's an
entirely different radio (full-size enclosure and front panel,
internal 100 W amp and ATU, high-performance sub receiver, up to 10

Don- Thanks!!! I did exactly what you said and everthing is in order. My low
pass toriods looked good. I had not tuned the KATV1 properly. I was just
sending CQ on 14.040 and see a nice 5 bars with the power set to 5 watts. I
cant wait to get the K2.

The point made by Mosley was that the 9913 *style* coax can be crushed easily
due to the material used for insulation between the center conductor and the
shield. RG213 *style* coax does not suffer from that deficiency.
I suppose I could have looked up the MIL STD number of both the coaxes and

Is anyone using a MFJ-994B AUTO TUNER 600W 1.8-30 MHZ with an Elecraft
k3/KPA500? I would like to know how they are working together.
Thanks in advance.

I use the LDG AT600 pro and it works fine. I avoid MFJ if I can. Some
stuff is fine other stuff is wellnot.
If you have not purchased one you might consider waiting for the KAT500
that Elecraft is working on.

I just sent this message to Elecraft support, but wondered if anyone out
there knows the answer or has experience:
I received my DSP upgrade board (K3DSPUPGD) around 10/14/2011 and am just
now installing it.
My K3 is serial number 1206.
Upon removing the original DSP board, I noted the board
Hello Phil,
From your serial number, you definitely need a DSP upgrade. However, you
observation proves exactly the contrary. Did you get your K3 from used market
so that the previous owner has already replaced it?
Keep us advised, I am interested in knowing it.
TNX 73,
Johnny VR2XMC
The easiest way to tell is that the new board has a little daughter-board with
low-pass
filter components on it. If both boards have them, you are already updated. If
neither,
then they sent you an old board. If one does and the other doesn't, install the
one that does!

Hi all,
The FT-100D station was sold instead of trading for the K2. Is there a
late model K2 with KSSB and KAT2, KIO and KDSP for sale?
Thanks,

Good Evening,
We had a surprise sunny day which got warm. 50 degrees felt very
nice. It got me out working so I could bring back most of a cord of
wood. It is now stacked and ready for the fire. Hopefully I won't get
to this pile until January. But there is more timber lying down

I've been to NZ and wish I could be there now. Best of luck to both
teams.
BTW: it's not totally off-topic. Isn't Eden Park (in Auckland, where
the game is to be played) presently experiencing a total power outage?
Won't those packed pubs need amateur radio to relay beer orders?
