KX3 will use it on my iPad.

Hi Roy and all
I own a HL-550FX. At the time I bought it for DXpeditions the KPA-500 had
not been released yet.
Just to make the comparison fair, it does not take 5 minutes do reset
after an alarm. You will need to turn it on/off and it will go to normal
state again.
Regarding the input power le
I bought this one for my iPad. Also works well with KX3. Costs about $35.00.
Very small and rugged.
I get distortion from this and the internal speaker with volume >30. So I
assume the internal speaker is working as it should. Distortion seems to be an
electronic problem.
Fortunately, there is
Was there a stand offered or supplied with the MD2 mike ? Had it for years,

Fred and all,
My personal opinion is that virtually all manufacturer's, well perhaps all
but two, produce fine products that appear to meet pretty much all of our
requirements. Some of us even place these products in rather extreme
conditions that manufacturers would rather we didn't do.

Dick,
I am using a West Mountain Radio PWRspkr 15W for mobile. It requires 12vdc
but the distortion is now gone as I only need to run the audio @ 15.
I am NOT using the KX3 as a portable walk-around transceiver though.
Strictly Mobile or Desktop operation.

Elecraft was selling the Heil Boom Mount when they were selling the MD2.

Good morning I was on the site a few days ago and now I am getting all the
chat about the radio from others I can I get off the chat boardThanks

I still may buy the radio like the receiver thanks again

Is this the same one that New Egg had in the link? I wondered if it might be
the radio because it's possible to get VG sound from small speakers anymore
and I'm sure that Elecraft would not skimp a dollar or two on a good
speaker. If so I will have a speaker ($13) for my iPad anyway 8>).

Hi Fred
I agree lots of good amps and I have owned several 6 different ones they
have ran from worked to excellent. My last 3 IMHO have been standouts the

to a FTDX-5000MP and my K3 that amp was 4 yrs old when I sold it not
The PR6 is controlled by either the DIGOUT1 line in the ACC connector,
or with the jumper installed, it is connected with the RX ANT button
(not the PRE button).
So I don't see how you could use either the PRE button or the RX ANT button.
You could use the DIGOUT1 signal to operate a 5 volt rel
I recently received a vanity call, KB6G from the FCC. My previous call was
AE6RH.
when I applied for a KB6G license plate in California, the DMV told me that
license was still in use and I can't have it. This was even after I
submitted their form and a letter and a copy of my new license...

Hi Ron,
I used to be KB0G, so your message kind of popped out at me. I had a couple
of qsos with KB6G in 1982 & 1988 and have a qsl for one of them.
From the FCC Database:
KB6G belonged to Thomas W. Moyer, 1734 Austin Ave., Los Altos, CA 94022.
The license expired 12/20/2010 and shows cancel
Thanks to all of you who jumped on this request and I now have located Mr.
Moyer's address, found that he is a member of the Elks and sent them a

Hi All,
A nice comparison of the KPA500 and the THP amp. Pros and cons for either
I'm sure. However, the question of weight makes me curious. As a KPA500
owner I know that there isn't much inside the KPA500 that adds a lot of
weight other than that nice, husky transformer. Erroneously, per
Dave-
The THP amp uses a switching power supply, the KPA500 uses a linear supply.
There's the major difference in weight. You don't need the heavy transformer
in a switcher, but it's harder to make the power supply "radio quiet"
without detectable birdies in the ham bands.

I thinks its more than what I wanted but if it will do the job that's
fine. What I had before was a background program that allowed any

i use a push up mast from Spiderbeam from Germany for exactly the

I fitted a commercial EMI filter (intended for 240V AC operation) inside my P3.
It is a fully sealed unit with solder tags. This unit was connected in the +
and - DC supply line. This filter completely removed any trace of noise from
the power cord to the P3.
I used a short coax with a one inch
Hi Jorge,
Assuming you are asking about the K3, No there is no easy way without
modifying the unit, to make the ATT greater than the fixed amount. Why not
just reduce the RF gain?

We had a nice net today. Smaller than a few recent nets, but still good. We
had 31 participants over a 27 minute period. There was some discussion on
changes due to F/W updates in the K3 and P3. See you next week.
