Hi all, The issue with PS-induced noise is not simple, it depends on several factors: transverse noise from the supply (RF current riding on the DC output) as well as common-mode due to PS input-to-output impedance. More info at: https://proaudioeng.com/products/pae-kx33-ac-power-supply/

Last night I installed the new KXV3B board into my K3. Yes, the pins are just a bit long - maybe 1/16 inch. Just long enough that the pins don't clear the J66 socket as stated in the installation instructions. But after several tries, I was finally able to do it without clipping the leads or

All switching power supplies emit something but whether their noise is heard or not depends on antennas. The noise is heard more with very close antennas and not all all with those farther away. Also more with unbalanced antennas especially is coax is part of the antenna system. There are many

I find it much easier to identify noise on my P3 rather than trying to discern it on the K3 audio. Looking at a 200Khz presentation let's me see what was just a buzz on the K3 as a big nasty moving hump on the P3. I assume the same is true on the KX3/PX3 combo? Is it feasible to lash the two

Right. If you are in fixed-tune mode the averaging does not reset except when the VFO runs off the edge of the screen. In tracking mode the averaging resets every time the VFO moves more than about one pixel on the display. Alan N1AL On 06/16/2015 12:07 PM, Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft
