Dear Elecrafters,
I've been using my K2 for a dozen years and I'm thinking I might go for a

widest bandwidth available to the receiver the width of the widest roofing
filter? I was wondering about getting the general coverag
Mine arrived this morning, well packed and easy to fit. A quality product that
matches the Elecraft perfectly.

Suddenly, I can't hear the sub-receiver in the right headphone unless I use
the "Ab-b" option on the "L-MIX-R" menu item. (FYI, the "b-Ab" option also
does not work.) I used the "A-b" option for years. Any clues as to what I
may have inadvertently changed to cause this?

Correct. If you operate mostly CW, you may be wasting money getting wider
filters than the stock 2.7 kHz...you definitely need a 500 Hz or lower
filter for CW to prevent blocking in
Paul,
The roofing filters protect the A to D converter input from strong
adjacent signals, so choose your CW filter according to your operating
habits. If you do CW contesting or DXing in pileup situations, you will
want a narrow filter.
If you are using the K3 as an SWL receiver, you would

Yes. Note however, there are some issues in using two exciters -

I forget the reason why but the right ear is muted if SPKR+PH is YES and

I think Paul had gotten the information he was asking about from
others Bill and Don.
I don't see much use for the 6K filter since you can now use the
13K FM filter for AM transmit. If you do a lot of AM transmit
you will have a cleaner signal with the 6K filter. If you only
do AM receive, yo
If you do a lot of AM transmit you will have a cleaner signal with
the 6K filter.
Only marginally and only so far as it applies to synthesizer phase
noise more than +/- 3 KHz from the carrier. Even then, the K3 will be
much cleaner that the typical YaeComWood up-conversion transceiver with

I'd like contact with anyone who's changed from DX4WIN to HRD V6.
Thanks, and ...

Kevin,
Please re-check.
The pin numbers are not marked on the board or on the module.
According to the voltage chart, pin 1 is the output pin and pin 4 is
closest to U6.
If you have 13.6 volts on pin 3, you have a error somewhere - that pin
is fed from the output of the 5 volt regulator U3.

Hi Nick.
I've traveled with my KX3 and various accessories on a dozen or more
flights, both domestic (around the USA) and into several European
countries.
Here's a synopsis of the results and best practices derived therefrom.

Support, the Quadra's INPUT 2 was intended to accommodate a six-meter
exciter, not another HF rig. Because of internal changes made by Yaesu
during final design planning (literally at the
However, I have received emails from a few K3 owners saying they
indeed HAVE successfully used INPUT 2 with a second HF transceiver

below.
The Exciter 1/Antenna 1 default is a limitation of the switching in
