I'm interested in trying to get my MS Surface Pro 3, great to pack on the
motorcycle, hooked up and usable with my KX3, also great to pack on the
motorcycle, for portable PSK31. It's quite a departure from a 17" laptop! I
have a Signalink available also. Anyone have this set up working? What do
Well, I guess the Kenwood TS-990S that I just unpacked doesn't qualify,
even by virtue of its 54-pound weight. :-)
No tubes, less than 75 pounds, and no place to tie a rope.

Gotta add for those that have not dealt with Dave. Super quality work and a
great up front guy to deal with. He keeps you informed as much as possible.
I assume he is still a firefighter so keep in mind his 24 hour shifts.
Looking forward to seeing your site back up and running. Currently doing

Like I said, never ever operated on 60M, I mean never without the amp.
When discussed with Craig at Elecraft he could not explain the failure, just
referred to a component failure.

Hello all
I thank you for all the help. I programmed it and it worked great. The only
thing that didn’t seem
to work is the band switching. maybe its my keyboard. I don’t know.
The power button is most convenient. I love it!
Any other goodies?

Folks,
I apologize in advance for the use of bandwidth. I've received a few
inquiries about my website (or lack thereof) and wanted to let all my
customers know that I am still in business. Comcast decided to stop
hosting websites and killed access to them a couple of weeks ago. I did

I think if I chucked the power supply for my TCS12 TX and RX, the K3 and the
KX3 in the lake they would all end up at the bottom maybe take different
times to get there but I can't see any of them floating!

Isn't the line out 2-channel mono, except when the sub is turned on? For
example, you won't hear the AFX effects on the line out.

Be aware - although the line out is stereo, some sound card devices are
mono, especially some found on laptops, so you may need a mono plug on the
other end.

Todd,
I would think you are asking about the K3 or K3S line out jack.
Yes, it is a 3.5mm (or 1/8 inch) jack - it is stereo, so you should use
a stereo plug.

Jim,
There is always the 2.7 (or 2.8) kHz roofing filter in-line even if you
have no other roofing filters.
If your situation is such that you do not encounter strong stations
within that 2.7 kHz bandpass, you can do just fine with only that
filter, the DSP is quite capable of isolating a sing
Anyone using the K3S in cw with no roofing filter(s) and enjoying how it sounds
during a contest?
Does the DSP filtering and the audio peaking filter do the job for you without
a 500 hz roofing filter?
Thank you, in advance for your thoughts72 de Jim Rodenkirch K9JWV

Interesting. As a field tester I tried darned hard to break mine,
unsuccessfully, guess I failed again.
Sadly, some components do fail, you just have to take it on the chin.

all of them at least once.

60M LPF??? Last I looked, the US power limit on 60M is 100W relative to
a half wave dipole.

The DSP and IF noise blanking are distinct and operate in series when both
are on.
IF NB shuts off the IF for a very short time when spike is detected. The
timing and width of that depends on the IF setting. The DSP NB does various
things in the number soup after the analog to digital converter.
P3 feature request: I'd like to be able to connect both a mouse and keyboard
and use the mouse for click to tune operation, drag and zoom, drag and
unzoom.etc..
I'm currently using $50 setup that requires a computer. If the P3 had mouse
features I'd strongly consider and probably buy it instead
I now have a buyer for the KAT3 autotuner module. Thanks for the overwhelming
