[Elecraft] K3 New Synth boards in Eu?

2015-05-05 Thread Johnny Siu
Hello Dominic, To my curiosity, if the KSYNA board were declared as second hand used electronic parts, would this also attract VAT? If the answer is negative, you can then ask a friend in US to buy and send it you which is theoretically second hand product. 73 Johnny VR2XMC 寄件人︰ Dominic Bai

Re: [Elecraft] K3 Ant2 Issue With KPA500

2015-05-05 Thread Harry Yingst via Elecraft
Here is something I did out of curiosity... I hooked my RX antenna to the input of a wattmeter and the output of the wattmeter into a dummy load. I then then observed how much power was being sent back to me through the RX antenna. It may not be accurate, but it was enough for me to install a f

[Elecraft] OT MF WSPR

2015-05-05 Thread Fred Jensen
I've been unable to log into the WSPRNet ... not sure why but I decode the same stations on 474.2 KHz over and over each night, and upload them to the DB. Should I be doing this? It seems like I'm just clogging up the database, but maybe someone is mining these data? I'm really new to the W

2015-05-05 Thread Joshua Gould
So, I'm wanting to get my feet wet with some digital modes (mainly PSK31 and RTTY right now). I have the KXPKT cable set and a Logitech USB sound card. Now what? I already have FLDigi. I connected everything up once and got diddly, so I don't know what I did wrong (Also, if it's any help, if I
