Perhaps it should be called a thermal conductor and electrical insulator but
then some people always complain even if hung with a new rope.

I'm pulling my hair out on this one, but let me keep it real simple. This

My question is this:
*Why does the audio passband dramatically roll off in the lower frequencies
as my Shift/FC goes above 1.40K

It's page 100 in my manual.

Thanks, Bob. I received a couple of other private replies raising the
same question, about RF exposure using an amp and an indoor antenna.
There is an RF exposure calculator available on the ARRL’s site, or
directly at http://hintlink.com/power_density.htm. My configuration at

Has anyone used a Rigblaster Blue with their KX3 and control the digi modes
with a Kindle Fire or Android phone?

Tomy,
The options you select for the KX3 will mostly be determined by your
operating aspirations and your antenna system.
If you do not have resonant antennas for all bands, then you will want
the KXAT3.
If you envision portable operation working on batteries, you may want
the internal battery
Update: measured the fans and they're 60mm.

I have a K3, Ser no 4569, that all of a sudden is giving me a
transformer like hum when I transmit above 30 W. Does something need
tightening all of a sudden? This is a very annoying. Anyone else
experience this and find a fix?

Have you considered that it could be coming from your power supply? Try
another power supply or run it from a large battery as a test.

It already exists. It's called a laptop.

The question is why you worked 15 ATNO's. It may be totally unrelated
to the K LINE.
One thing for sure you can't defeat the laws of physics. 1500 W -> 500
Watts is a 4.5 dB loss. That is huge in a pileup. So tell me how the K
LINE makes up for that loss and then some.

That, and I think that a new radio and a reborn interest in operating

Once you have a reasonably loud signal and an antenna that allows you to
hear the DX, the most important attribute of a DX-oriented station is
agility. You can tune the bands and when you hear something you need to
be able to jump on it instantly. Get him before he's spotted and the

True, and I notice it here when I get beat by other W6s with similar stations
other than the amp. I live with it given the incredible integration of the

I would buy one right now.
500 is great for convenience but full legal limit would be my ultimate goal.
Some time a little extra is all you need lol and I run QRP most the time.
