Don,
Interesting. My KX3 is s/n 324, an oldie. Do you know who is
making the new mics? I, too, may need that info for future reference.

Barry,
I do not believe that is true anymore (except for the ProSet-K2).
The original MH2 microphone was Heil, but that was changed a very long
time ago.
Since you just bought the MH3, your best recourse is to contact Elecraft
about a replacement.

Jim and all,
That is not quite correct. KEY1 is for the 3.5mm jack on the side panel
while KEY2 is for the paddle connection on the front (the KXPD3). Check
the information in the menu listing description in the manual.

There is no need to bypass the P3, just connect the SDRPlay to the P3 IF
output.
The P3 IF output is a replication of the K3S IF output.

You are apparently looking for the Elecraft KRC2. It is on the website

The color codes are from the wires on the FTDI USB Cable
(USB-RS232-WE-1800-BT-0.0)

The only wires that will be connected
to the maximum which will cause
additional damage if that condition exists for more than a very short time.
Build the PC to K2 cable shown in the KIO2 and KPA100 manuals and plug
it into that adapter or most any other FTDI USB to Serial adpater.

If it does not, you have a display problem - reflow the soldering on the
LED bargraph and Front Panel RP2, then check again.

You will also need to download the KX3 Utility from the Elecraft website

I have acquired a used KX3 (serial number between 4000 and 5000, uC
firmware 0.150, dsp firmware 01.21) and I am checking it out
- and should never be used with the KSB2 option or the
KPA100 option installed (or any external amplifier).
When counting toriod turns, count the number of times the wire passes
through the center of the core.

#10 or #8 wire will need the 45 amp contact blades.
However, if the purpose is to minimize voltage drop, there is no need to
use the larger connector - construct the power pole with #12 wire about
3 inches long. Then splice onto that with #10 or #8 wire for the rest
of the run to your power
Even being left handed, I have no problem using my right hand on the
knobs. That leaves my left hand free to do other things requiring a
greater degree of hand/finger coordination.
I like it the way it is.
