Hi David:
Well... by cloning, I assume you mean frequency memories, message
memories and macros. That's an interesting question, since while you
can save and preserve all the settings of a particular KX3 via the
Utility, I think there are some rig-specific settings which are
extremely
Hi Jeff,
After pushing the SUB button you have no volume in the right ear. Lets
begin.
Are the headphones fully inserted into the jack.
Is the SUB RX RF gain control fully clockwise.
Is the SUB RX tuned to the same band or perhaps a different (dead) band.
Press A-B twice to transfer VFO
Joel,
Congratulations on the new W4A-Alabama SOTA Association!
I just checked and the SOTA database does indeed have the Alabama summits
already included with a 1 SEPT 2013 start date.
Please let me know if I can be of any assistance. WØM-Missouri just started in
February 2013 so I'm a bit
Just le tme know when you're in town, Bill, and we'll get a few of us together
for a SOTA outing ;-)

Greetings All, I do not understand. A common failure here.
I have the Phase lock board installed in the K144XV 2M transverter
in my K3. The K3 is factory and I installed the K144XV and the PL board.
Apparently I failed to calibrate/recalibrate the unit after installation.
Now I have gotten around
It's designed for just that sort of use when hooked up as shown in Figure 4
(pg 11) of the KAT500 manual. You can download the manual from Elecraft.com.
The internal memories will store the L/C settings for best SWR across the
Ham bands and recall those settings in an instant when it sniffs some
Hi Ron,
Keep in mind the power limitations. From the Owners Manual Specifications:
3 - 30 MHz 600W into 5 Ω to 500 Ω (10:1 SWR). 1000W into 16 Ω to 150 Ω (3:1
SWR)
1.8 - 2 MHz 600W into 10 Ω to 500 Ω (5:1 Low Impedance, 10:1 High Impedance
SWR)
30 - 60 MHz 500W into 5:1 SWR (10 Ω to 250 Ω)

Hello, I am considering the purchase of the KAT500 Tuner. I am driving a
restored Heathkit SB 200 with my K3. Currently have a manual tuner. Are
there any concerns or comments with replacing the manual tuner with the
KAT500?
Thanks. I would be grateful for any feedback

I have put together a simple white LED bar on the bottom of the KX3. No holes,
it clips over the bottom thumbs screws. Runs off of 9 to 16 VDC @ 25 mA,
regulated by a LM7808. I have a schematic and pictures for those interested.
BTW the bar is a plastic DIP IC stick with a AL sheetmetal
I was Mike. The SB200 is rated at a maximum power of 1200 watts PEP sideband
and 1000 watts CW. But that is DC *input* to the final amplifier tubes. That
was how transmitters were commonly spec'd back then.
In use the SB200 runs about 500 to 600 watts RF output, which is fine for
the KAT500 as
Is there a setting on the KAT-100 the effectively removes the tuner from the
circuitmuch like a bypass on my Ten Tec 238 tuner?
Thanks and 73

In Australia we have a new band. The 630 meter band. It covers 472 to 478 KHz.
They tell me there is a lot of interesting activity going on there.
I tried to tune there with my K3 but alas it would only go down to 490 KHz.
With RIT at -10 KHz and set to LSB, I could just start to hear signals at
Thanks for all the comments. Looks like the KAT500 will do a good job with
the amp.

Ed,
Set the ATU menu to CAL. There will be a small residual reactance, but
the tuner is effectively bypassed.

I found at Field Day I needed the front panel illuminated as well as my
clipboard. I have rigged a small LED on a 6 goose neck attached to the power
plug. Works well enough that I can turn off the KX3's internal backlight making
the total power load unchanged.

Mike, thank you very much! The problem was as I suspected, operator error! The
outer AF knob was fully counter clockwise. Restoring this knob to the 12:00
position restored VFO reception in my right ear. It must have gotten knocked
by someone using my rig at Field Day. What a relief!
