Richard, The Sunday Elecraft Nets all use relays, so if you cannot hear the NC you can get picked up by a relay. The 20M net on 14.3035 at 1800Z this week will be K1NW in Rhode Island. The 40M net on 7.280 at 1900Z is usually WM6P, Steve, in northern Georgia. The 80M net is run by Dave, N8SBE,

Re: [Elecraft] [ELECRAFT] Are there any "bad radios"?

Great thoughts on radio purchases Geoff. I have owned all the major brands - kenwood, icom, yaesu, ten tec - at least 2x each - and got both great contacts and valuable learning time on every one. I now own a K3, KPA500, P3 and KAT500, which could be my last radio and that would be fine with me.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 - panadapter or subreceiver

Hi Mike, You are right! I should have read the manual before posting ;-) It is important to consider the filters needed for the subRX - 8-pole filters are not inexpensive. I hope to have both someday, but for now am very happy with my P3 and KPA500 (and KAT500 on order...). - Brian, op K1

Re: [Elecraft] K3 - panadapter or subreceiver

I thought this through and chose the P3. The subRX requires a second antenna - which I did not have - and the matching filters, so it is not just the receiver alone. The P3 does everything the others have mentioned, and as one responder said - you will end up using it all the time if you work DX sp

Re: [Elecraft] Concentric knobs??

I had the same problem at the time I built K3 #4974. Elecraft sent replacements right away (the usual excellent service), and coached me not to over tighten the set screws (two per knob). The knobs are pretty soft and deform easily if over tightened. - Brian, op K1NW -- View this message in c
