I had a plan to set up one of my shack K3 rigs as a remote control station
to be used with a K3/0-Mini but have abandoned the plan due to changing
interests and need to raise $$$ to pursue them.
This complete package costs $1320 at current Elecraft packaging.
This package has only been unpa

Elecraft recently posted a modification to the K3REF to correct a problem
caused by the K3EXREF. Though specific to frequency changes noticeable on
on 2M and 6M, I suspect it may directly relate to this discussion.

Alan,
Thank you for such a clear explanation! I understood the process, and
why, but having someone actually put numbers to it helps in getting
that "gut feeling" as to why... Thank you!!

When Eric VA7DZ, Fred KE7X and I were all experimenting with KRC2s for
our K3s, I also connected mine to the KX3 with the help of Jack Brindle,
KRC2 expert.
Here's what I did to the KRC2 to make it work in between the KX3 and the
computer:
1. Set KX3 menu item RS232 to 19200b. Set the appr

Without repeating a long response to my long post, we do agree on all
key points. Including the fact that the vast majority of manufacturers
get shield bonding wrong.
Here's a link to Henry Ott's website. Scroll down to find a reference to
the latest edition of his book. It is often used as a

there has been a lot of discussion from time to time about the use of code

a common cause of such 'power hunting'.
You can do this off the air - turn the power to zero or connect a dummy

Almost.
The TCXO has no control input and is not tuned; it is only measured.
The measurement information is passed to the radio's MCU which then uses
the data to determine the correct value to command the synthesizer(s),
drive the REF CAL display, and so forth.

Hi All
I am new to this list and hope this has not been raised before.
I have a new KX3 with the up to date firmware, this radio is a replacement
for the original KX3 that had the same thing happening.
When you go to 15Mtrs on USB from a different band the output power is very
low on the output met
Thanks guys for the detailed and thorough replies - I understand it now!!
