[Elecraft] K3Util version history?

I see a relatively new update for K3Util on the web site. However, I don't see a version history with what's changed. Am I missing it? Tnx, Barry W2UP -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3Util-version-history-tp5946045p5946045.html Sent from the [K

John, I would double check the filter configuration of your K3 using the K3 Utility under "Configuration - Configure Crystal Filters" 73, Barry N1EU -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3-Lin-Out-Need-a-hint-for-trouble-shooting-tp5943511p5943684

Re: [Elecraft] Line Audio Output Mod

Dave, which part of the instructions indicate your board needs the mod? The Elecraft Web site says K3's before: "about Oct 7, 2008, about S/N 1900" The revision marked on your board has no bearing on this. Boards needing the mod will measure 604 ohms at R19 and R20 as Joe mentio

[Elecraft] K3 line out

rough both L & R channels. The subreceiver audio comes through fine on the right channel when it's turned on. Can some other folks please check their K3 line out and please let me know if you hear the same thing? Perhaps this is by design. Thanks & 73, Barry N1EU -- View this message

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] Matching 5 pole filters in main and KRX3

No, you need to use the same offset values for the same filter position in the main and sub receivers. If the marked offsets aren't too far apart, you can use the average of the two values for both receivers. That works fine for my 500hz and 200hz 5-pole filters. 73, Barry N1EU k5oai

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] KAT3 and 160 with 40m long doublet

Even if you can tune a 40m wire on 160, that doesn't mean it will work well. In my experience, short wires for the low bands are an exercise in futility. Barry W2UP -- Barry Kutner, W2UP Lakewood, CO __ Elecraft ma

[Elecraft] SMD resistors for K3 Line Audio Output mod?

The K3 Line Audio Output mod described in http://www.elecraft.com/K3/mods/K3_AF_Stage_Upgrade_Instructions_Rev_B.pdf calls for 51-ohm 1/8 watt SMD resistors. Can anyone provide a manufacturer or Digi-Key part number, or the correct SMD package size? Thanks & happy holidays, Barry

A classic, Phil! I've had solder drop on my leg while wearing shorts, but that was the worst for me. BTW, my wife came in to see what I was laughing about and I had her read your post. She didn't get it - though Mr. Happy referred to a toy or stuffed animal :.) Barry W2UP Phil Town
