I don't know the answer to all your questions but I will note the following:
The KIOb3 board is not essential. You just need to have a serial port or a USB
adapter for connecting with a computer. I never bothered to upgrade mine when
I upgraded the synthesizers on my K3.

Sorry but I just need a little help with this - I'm in the K4 Group 3
list and know it will be a while before I get the call, so considering
buying a used K3(S) in the mean time. This would be my first Elecraft
and I am hesitant to jump in knowing the support has ended. Are there
any guidelines
Well, it was on receive that the S-meter would pin, and the audio output would
be muted, hence AGC….

Bill,
I am glad to hear it has not re-occurred. I think your analysis is
correct, except that it would be ALC and power control that would be
affected, not AGC.

Don,
Just a quick follow-up. I’m going to close the book on this problem, as it has
not come up again, despite leaving the K2 on a couple of days.
I think your diagnoses was spot on, I think a 15 MHz oscillation of the K60XV
VRFDET components was causing the K2 to think the AGC was being activ
Hi Dave,
I train all of my W3LPL operators to always check their receiver sensitivity
before a contest and every time they change to a different band or a
different radio. This is an essential skill and habit that should be ingrained
into every successful contester and DXer.

That happened to me here on ten meters a few years ago. I had just built
up a good ten meter station and W1UE came up to operate it. He had a K3
at his house, so I never interfered with any of his operating
techniques, but he was complaining about the poor propagation all day on
Saturday. He l

Thanks o all of those replying with serious considerations. In reviewing the
responses, one of you hit the nail on the head: a dumb operator error occurred,
the wrong antenna had been selected for the 10 meter band. I suppose most

I imagine lying on the roof would usually be fine, except for being a little
lower. At a couple of different QTHs I had my antennas in the attic; 40-10m
dipoles, 6m and 2m loops. These were wood roofs with cedar shakes or asphalt
shingles. They all worked well when the roof was dry. Wet de
Fortunately the wire is caught under snow and ice on a timber frame
building with asphalt shingles. It seems to be working just fine. Even
better than before, the dipole no longer can swing in the wind!
Maybe the next antenna should just lie on the roof!

Hi Bernie,
I think the trick is to press and hold the "NTCH" button to enter the manual
notch mode. If you only tap the button, even though the display reads "Manual"
and the icon appears, it is not really in the manual notch mode.
For example, my CW sidetone pitch is set to 560 Hz. If I tune a c
