But seriously, whatever you do, ensure that there is enough ventilation and
that things can be hidden from prying eyes.
Maybe consider using ratchet tie down straps to tie the equipment down
securely so things
If it were my K-Line in a motorhome - and assuming it would not be
operated during travel, I would build a custom box cover (or more to the
point, a shell) for it - likely out of plywood.
My vision is that box cover would have partitions that would fit between
each of the K-Line boxes, and
To add to the small self-supporting thread - loads of great
contributions there, thanks everyone - : I travel a lot for business, and
often carry my KX3 + Alexloop which is pretty much the only kind of antenna
that I know I'll be able to use in urban areas. This setup works really

CW skimmer works great with the KX3 and K3. If you look on my QRZ page
(call sign NA1DX), there is a picture from my RV in Delaware this past
weekend. I was QRV with my KX3 feeding a R5 off the side of our RV. I
made a number of QSOs SSB, CW, including a bunch during the NAQP RTTY
Hi all. I have K2 #3745 that was purchased in kit form on 12 Sept 2003.
It includes K160RX, KNB2 and KSB2. It was built by someone on the
Elecraft builders list. It was built some months after the kit was
bought so the builder also installed the key click mod that came out
after I bought the
Drivers for the FTDI devices have been built into OS X since at least 10.9
(might be 10.8). You won’t even need to download drivers from FTDI to make them
work.
I have had no problems at all with testing of El Capitan and these devices.
The expected experience will continue to be, just plug it

You will need to set up using:
softrock-IF
CW Pitch to what ever you set it to
Audio IF = 8000 - CW pitch
There will need to be a little adjustment of the IF due to your sound
card not being exact.
You will also need to set CAT to KX3 and appropriate com port. When you
get Audio

My question is (if it’s been answered, I apologize), will the KIO3B
use signed drivers for OS X 10.11?
KIO3B uses stock drivers. The serial port is an FTDI part with
signed drivers for all operating systems. The Audio CODEC is
supported by the USB
Not sure if this is worth the email or not (my last question about the NF of
the KIO3B did nothing but raise the NF of the list, got hi-jacked, and then

The object of my exercise was not to measure the exact losses in the
loading coil, nor to determine why it made such a poor antenna, but to
determine which antenna would work best for the appropriate bands from a

Hello,
it is very quiet on the Elecraft site and although I know that they don't
talk about things which are not ripe for the community, but I just wanted
to emphasize my interest for developments / improvements of my Px3.
Yesterday I have been reading about the options of the K3 and the P3 and
I have a Telepost LP-100 digital vector wattmeter for sale. It has been
upgraded to an LP-100A with the LP-100A GVFD Display Kit.
It comes with the standard 2000 watt 1.8-54 MHz coupler. It's in great
shape. Works great.
Make me an offer. All reasonable offers will be considered.

I personally use a hard sided travel case fitted with die cut foam to
accommodate the various pieces of equipment...radio, power supply,
mike, wire antenna, coax cable, and etc. There's a few dedicated cables
and such wired into the travel trailer to assist with getting coax outside.

OOPS! I picked up Gerard in the thread. However, my response of

you need to set the signal I/O device to the sound card you use for the

I don't know why the server always does that my posts. Sorry. Last try. Then I

If you have an antenna modeling program like EZNEC you can perform a simple
experiment to illustrate a strange behavior of ground loss.
The EZNEC example Elevrad1 is a 1/4-wave vertical with 4 radials
Matches my experience, Al. This humble arrangement of wires radiates somewhere
along a continuum between vertical with one or more radials (over perfect
ground) and inverted V mounted at a weird angle (in free space). I think that
explains the variance in loss, takeoff angle, etc.

I have had a problem for a while with intermittent Line Out audio from my K3.
Before I send in the radio for repair, I wanted to make sure I have identified
the problem source. It seems to center around the front headphone jack. With
no line out audio, I can sometimes put my headphone plug
When I have radio equipment traveling in the RV, they ride on the big bed
in the back. It has two inches of foam on top of the mattress, plus a cushy
bed cover. They would probably fly forward in a head-on crash with an 18

one more time.

When I run my K3 mobile I use a web strap. Easy to install and remove

The question depends on how the rig travels on lousy roads. For most of
the roads in the US, you'll want a semi-rigid mount but soft enough that
a hard bounce won't jar anything loose. If your travel include off
pavement, it will be the same, only beefier. Padding between the
