I had not updated the firmware on my K3 in a while, so I went to the Elecraft site, downloaded the new K3 utility, found the new firmware, and proceeded to download it to the K3. I have suddenly lost the 100 w amp in the K3, and I can no longer link the two vfo's. I'm not sure what else is

There used to be a program that allowed for more convenient adjustment of audio equalization. Is this still available? Also, can equalization be done separately for the sub-receiver? Thanks and 73, Dick WO1I K3#911 __ Elecraft

Try KLH-970A Indoor/ Outdoor 3-way Speakers at overstock. They're no longer manufactured, but typically sell for about $30/pair, and sound just fine with the K3 -- especially if the equalizer is set to your needs. 73, Dick WO1I K3#911 At 11:55 PM 8/28/2014, Mike Flowers wrote: Hi Gang,

Actually, it seems to me that an antenna tuner is needed because SWR is high, and if SWR is high, there are extra losses in the feedline. The lowest cost low loss feeder is open line, and a balanced input to the tuner would be useful. Dick, WO1I At 10:48 PM 12/8/2011, Arie Kleingeld PA3A
