As the design is all in the public domain, plus all the notes and
photo's from the old Clifton site (and many others) are still about
regarding transformer coupled "noiseless feedback" amps, there is not a
lot preventing anyone from building their own. Or any number of

Jim,
First the XG3 is not exact on frequency. I use a very good counter
which will read up to 26-GHz and has an internal TCXO. I've noted
the XG3 being off up to several tens of Hz, so to use as a frequency
std is not sufficient for measuring EXREF frequency accuracy. Its
pretty good for i
Ed,
I did the Synth upgrade (= improvement) and the 2nd preamp for the
higher bands (= a very necessary feature)
That's it for me.

The first rule of antennas is "put up the biggest thing you possibly
can, and if it stays up, it was too small."
The Buddipole is SMALL.
That's why I don't have one.
The other reason, it seems to me that you're paying a premium for a

After talking with Elecraft technical support, I learned that common causes
for this problem are poor solder connections on the LCD Driver IC or the LCD
itself.
Elecraft is sending me a new Display board under Warranty Exchange.

I have owned Elecraft transceivers for less than a year. I had a couple of
issues with one K3S and some issues that were just operator related. In
all cases Elecraft very responsive, helpful and resolved the problem.

Steven,
How much spring action is an individual preference. Some prefer a very
light touch while others prefer something a bit more heavy.
Have you tried carefully stretching the stock spring?
Be careful not to stretch too far at a time, but do it in increments
until it feels right for you.
This fellow on YouTube put a piece of drinking straw between the paddles
for a stiffer feel:

I am not going to be a proponent of the Buddipole system, nor am I going
to be an adversary.
In other words, the Buddipole system works well, and the standard system

bands below 15 meters, some inductance is added to lower the
