[Elecraft] [K3} [K3s] Final round of module orders?

2021-11-03 Thread Michael Carter
Just curious if anyone who participated in the "last call" for K3/K3s modules/upgrades last summer has received the ordered modules or even just an email of impending shipment? I checked the Shipping Status page at Elecraft's web page and saw that all of the available modules/upgrades are listed a

[Elecraft] K3 - HI RFI alarm

2021-11-03 Thread Nick Kennedy
I've had my K3 since around 2007 and recently have started getting a HI RFI message on the LCD while operating CW and using my AL-811 amplifier at about 500 W. It seems odd since when I'm "key down" my antenna should not be connected to the receiver. I'm not using QSK. I have a bit of delay to ke

Never seen a HI RFI indication before ... could it have been HI RFL [hi reflected]?  If it's HI REFL, it sounds like something has failed in the AL-811 input circuit. Fred ["Skip"] K6DGW Sparks NV DM09dn Washoe County Nick Kennedy wrote on 11/3/2021 9:58 AM: I've had my K3 since around 2007 a

By far it is the most fun per watt of any radio that I have ever owned. I worked HD8R on 15 with 10 watts to a random wire. w8vln On Mon, Nov 1, 2021 at 6:08 PM Wayne Burdick wrote: > I took advantage of the excellent conditions today to work a little DX > with the KX2. I was running 10 watts
