[Elecraft] KXBC3 Charging source

I am looking for recommendation for a compact switching power supply product to recharge my KX3 via the installed KXBC3. I had been using a Bioenno external battery pack, but have decided to start using internal NiMH batteries when on the road. 73, Dave KA1DA __

[Elecraft] OT: Annecke ATU wanted

I'm looking for an Annecke balanced (symmetrical) ATU as much for its beauty as its functionality! I know they're rare but does anyone know of one that might be for sale? And, are we really making progress? The charger for the KX2 battery is almost as big as the KX2 itself. 73 David G4CWB ___

[Elecraft] K3 and wireless intruder alarm

I'm thinking of installing a wireless home security system running on 868 MHz (FM). I run up to 100 watts through the built-in ATU, into an Elecraft balun, open wire feeder and 88ft dipole at 30ft. Has anyone any experience they can share please? Am I likely to trigger the alarm? Thanks Dav

[Elecraft] K2 Amp for KX3

I know that the 100 watt amp for the K2 can't be driven by just any rig, but can it work with the KX3? Does anyone have any bright ideas? Thanks David G4CWB __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo

[Elecraft] Flying with K2

Thanks to everyone who offered advice. All agreed on - K2 OK, internal SLA is not. Paperwork - licence copy (and manual). 73 David G4CWB __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://

[Elecraft] Flying with K2

Advice please - I'm flying within Europe shortly with a K2. Do I pack it in suitcase (hold) or carry-on? Any problem with the SLA battery? What about paperwork? Is it likely to cause concern at the airports? Thanks David G4CWB

[Elecraft] Import tax and VAT (UK)

VAT on the K3 kit is payable but not import tax. The latter depends on the accuracy of the 'code' numbers supplied by Elecraft, and I've always found these absolutely right. UK Customs unfortunately often can't be bothered checking the full number in their book (also on the web) and they have charg

[Elecraft] Auto balanced tuner

I'm using a h/b 1930's link (balanced) tuner. It's as efficient as I can get, and open wire feeders closely balanced. What I'd really like is the same automated, either using motorised variable caps or switched caps/inductance. Has anyone any links or have they managed it themselves? David G4CW

[Elecraft] K3 Momentary breaks when tuning down

I'm aware when tuning down a band on receive that there is a short break in the audio every so often. This doesn't seem to happen when tuning up the band. Can anyone explain what is happening? David G4CWB ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecra

[Elecraft] K3 firmware upgrade 1.55

On my K3 (#126) the latest firmware version (possibly previous ones also) reset the RS232 speed to 38,400. If you lose serial connection, check Config:RS232 to ensure software and K3 are talking at the same speed. Advice please - the ATU BYPASS feature - is it a real bypass leaving no stray cap

[Elecraft] Import charges to UK

The last two imports to the UK have (wrongly) attracted duty for me. The explanation I was given was that “our” database can’t handle all the digits, so the code number gets truncated and duty levied accordingly. It’s devil of a job reclaiming the duty: all the paper work has to be submitted. For t

[Elecraft] UK import duty

This has been mentioned from time to time but still caused a problem when I ordered a KX1 kit recently. Elecraft's documentation is correct and perfectly clear - one of the commodity codes was 8529 9040 00. UK Customs truncated this to 8529 90 and charged import duty at 3%. If you don't pay, you ca

[Elecraft] High-tech sound enhancement for K2

Dear People, I've much enjoyed building and using my K2 etc. As big a delight is this mailing list, with its tremendous expertise and good humour. It's time I gave something back, so here's my one dollar's worth. It might seem mad, but it works. My hearing of upper frequencies is not too good and

[Elecraft] Z match versus KAT100

I'd appreciate thoughts about what I *think* I hear! I normally use K2/100, KAT100, BL1 (4:1 balun), open wire feeder and 84' dipole - works fine. 80m is noisy but I get a good match on all bands. I recently connected a Z-match tuner (old KW Easi Match - like the Johnson Matchbox) to the output of

[Elecraft] Mic gain

I've changed R14 to 5.6k to increase mic sensitivity using SSBA=2. I then bought the MH2 mic which is matched to the K2. Reports said I was clipping and degrading the audio, so I set SSBA to 1. Quality is now fine. Can I assume that the MH2 is matched to the K2 with R14 at 1k (as original) and SSBA

[Elecraft] Sproggy on 7180?

In UK we've just got 7100-7200. Listening on 7180-7185 I'm receiving stations with considerable distortion . Above and below are fine. Checking on two other receivers the transmissions on 7180-7185 sound clean. Is there a sproggy mixing within the K2 giving this localised distorti
