Re: [Elecraft] Lightning Season, disconnect COMPUTER etc.

One note: Keith mis-spoke when he stated "Spare K3 board supplies are low or gone". We certainly are not stopping support and repairs for the K3 and K3S. (Of course there are some lightning damaged radios that are not economical to repair.) Though some repairs may take longer as replacement parts

Re: [Elecraft] K3 boards

Hi Scott, Keith mis-spoke on this. We certainly are not stopping support and repairs for the K3 and K3S. What is happening is that we are pivoting from board swaps to component level repairs on many K3 and K3S boards. Also, we will still be building boards for these radios that can be sold for

Hi Per-Tore, Can you identify which transistor (or other device) on the LPA module is getting hot in transmit mode? The drain terminals of MOSFET PA transistors Q4 and Q5 receive +12V regardless of TX or RX mode, but the gate bias voltages are applied only in TX mode. Unless there's a problem

Re: [Elecraft] K4 Questions

I recall that Eric answered a question about that during one of the two 90 minute Q at the Expo. I think he said it may be available at some point, but indicated it was possibly over ethernet (?) rather than USB. But I could be mistaken, since I’m lucky to remember my name unless I look at my
