Re: [Elecraft] K3S Radio check?

I would start with your local AM Broadcast stations like WBT on 1100 KHz. I would then check out WWV on 5.0MHz, 10MHz, 15MHz, 20MHz as well as CHU in Canada on 3.33MHz, 7.850MHz and 14.67MHz. You might want to add these into memory for easy recall. Be mindful that time of day/current

Re: [Elecraft] K3 VFO - Linking

Hi Bill, The D10 manual text has been superseded by newer firmware. The only way now to do a VFO link is CONFIG: VFO LNK. Tap on SUB toggles the subRX. Hold on SUB toggles diversity mode. This is true for both K3 and K3S. The K3S front panel has a yellow DIV just to left of the SUB button.

To be practical, there just is no way for a maker of transceivers to keep up with all 3rd party generators of software/hardware. We depend on Elecraft engineers to be working on Elecraft products. Also, there is a 22 page manual for K3/0 and the remote protocol for Remote Rig, which Elecraft

Ron, Second that. I found it easier to maximize output by substituting a 1k resistor in series with a 1K pot for the 1.8 K resistor. Also after connecting the battery backwards once, a diode in series with the + supply was added. 73 de Brian/K3KO This unit produces about S9 noise on

Re: [Elecraft] K3/0 Forum?

The lack of a good manual and no diagram for the K3/0 is way..below the normal Elecraft standards. It is especially bad if in addition to remote rig you sometimes want to use the USB cable and remote hams. There just is no documentation as to what is going on! Ed W0SD On 10/11/2015

Re: [Elecraft] K3S Radio check?

Cdx are punk here in the Northwest today. Very few signals below 21 MHz. If one of the little Elecraft sig gens is too pricy ($90 to $180), think about assembling a little noise generator. I have one made out of a handful of parts with the most expensive piece being the 9V battery. The late Tom

Yes, they were on 160m from approximately 1100z to 1200z. The 30m RTTY op went QRX. About 10 minutes later they showed up on 1826.5. Very weak signal with long and deep QSB. Definitely needed the K3 NR. The LP-PAN helped to determine who was calling. Mostly 9's and 0's getting in the log at

Jerry, I had a 2 foot long alligator clip lead on the antenna input of my K3s today and was hearing cw signals all over 40 meters. K3s is a pretty hot receiver. You might try to connect up a wire 5-10 feet long to the ANT 1 input. Put the rig in TEST mode and see what you hear. Fingers crossed
