[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

Good Evening,    The fir trees have two to three inches of bright green new growth.  The ferns are between six and ten feet tall but not done unrolling.  The hummingbirds returned and brought friends.  It is quite busy right now, I have to duck when I walk out the door. They enjoy flying at

Hank, To use the KXPA100 with the K2, you will have to install the K2 Keying Output mod.  This is not available from Elecraft, but boards are available from FAR circuits.  The KXPA100 will bandswitch when RF is applied. You might ask Dave W8FGU if he has any built up as kits d...@w8fgu.com. 

Re: [Elecraft] Want to build a K2

Hank, At this point the only options unavailable in addition to the KPA100 are the K60XV 60M/Tranverter module and the KDSP2 Audio Filter module. The KAT2 internal 20W ATU is still available as are all the other modules. To key the KXPA100 amp (or any other external amp) you will need to add

[Elecraft] Want to build a K2

Yes, the KXPA100 works FB with a K2/10, and gives you the built-in 100w ATU if installed.  You can also then hook up a larger amp on the other side of the KXPA100 as well.   No brag, just fact.   I urge anyone thinking of building a K2 to get off the fence and order one now.  The K2 is a blast

[Elecraft] Shipping dates

I got this a couple days ago - We don't have an ETA for the KXV3B boards yet. Eric is in the process of updating a message now. We hope to have that posted to the reflector and via a newsletter by about mid-week next week. Hank K7HP

[Elecraft] Want to build a K2

Hey folks. I want to try and tackle a more challenging kit build. I built my K3S back in Oct 2018 and it was pretty easy. Same for my KX3 2 years later. The K2 looks like more of a real kit with challenges! After seeing old posts here, I can see there are certain items no longer available

Re: [Elecraft] k3 Mic gain self resetting to 1

My thinking was to restore from an earlier workspace then reinstall the IC-7300 but I will take a look at the controls first. I don't remember making any recent changes to to the control configuration. Russ, KG7VQ __ Elecraft

[Elecraft] k3 Mic gain self resetting to 1

Since you use DXLab I'd suggest checking Commander's "User-defined Controls" configuration. Is there a slider for Mic gain? If so, is it configured to "Initialize radio"? In Commander click "Help" then select "sliders" for more info. Andy, k3wyc

Re: [Elecraft] Signal source for KX3 temperature frequency calibration

For those considering using the excellent dual output Leo Bodnar GPSDO, be aware that you cannot select certain combinations of output frequencies. I have the dual output unit and it can be set for 10 MHz on one socket and 1 MHz on the other, which was ideal to drive my old Racal counter at 1 MHz
