Be aware that if you ship the radio, you will want to remove the heavy
knobs...
If the radio is man handled, the the moment of inertia, (for lack of a
better term), can get quite high when the package is dropped, and break
the encoder shaft.

They've been installed on my K3 for 9 years, and on my KX3 ever since it came
out. No problems so far.
The company is 73cnc, by the way. Not 73inc.
They no longer make the spun aluminum knobs for the K3, unfortunately. Just
the plain black ones.

While we're on the subject of protection for the K3, back in the fall of 2007,
when we were asked to setup a display table for the newly released rigs (sn 008
& 021) for the Lebanon Hamfest and in a quandry as to how to transport them
safely, the late Tom Hammond (N0SS) came across military sur

Does the K3 still respond to microphone input as it did before?
If the answer is YES, then I would suspect the soundcard is the source
of your problem.

Used one for years. Never had a problem. The encoder is not THAT
fragile. The extra weight is very pleasant to have.

Hello Group,
I am having a problem that I have not seen before. I have a KX3 connected
to a KPXA100. When I tune my yagi, I get 1.2 to 1 SWR when I press the tune
button on 10-15--20. The rig shows that the SWR does not change during CW
transmissions. When running 100W, the LED indicator o

I have been following the thread with regards to the setting of the AGC of the
K-3 with great interest. I am new to the use of the K-3 even though I have

the unit.My K-3 has been updated with all of the current K-

Louis,
I am not one to give you specific settings for you to just plug in and
use. If I did so, I would just tell you to use the default settings.
Every location and operating style is different, and you can enhance the
AGC performance to meet your particular situation.
Please read the "Nois
Louis,
FWIW I like my K3 noisy, almost so it sounds like there is no AGC action,
just enough to protect my ears from an unexpected loud signal. I've found
that this makes it easiest to copy extremely weak CW signals that are below
the noise, and prevents static pops from covering up the signal. T
Is it OK to use ESSB on the net?
Thanks,

I'm getting an always-flashing TX on the LCD about 3 seconds after I power up
our K3S; I'm running firmware 5.50 (though it was happening with 5.38). There
are no "PTT ERR" or "KEY ERR" messages displayed on power up.
The ONLY connections on the rear panel are Antenna and Power -- Nothing plugg
I have seen activity on frequencies just above the net frequency
of 14,303.5, so ESSB might interfere with those people. Given
how hard it is to pull some net stations out of the noise, most
stations are probably using rather narrow receive bandwidths, so
a full spectrum signal will be cut off
I'm not sure I "solved" it, but here's how I got the flashing TX to stop.
Again, this is with a K3S, fw 5.50. Nothing attached to the rear panel,
especially the ACC connector. LCD TX was constantly flashing.
Went into Config: TX Inh, which was set to Inh=LO. set Inh=Off. Flashing TX
