I run Winmor on my K3 & KX3 and find it very frustrating that Winmor resets the
mode back to SSB with each automatic frequency change. I need the mode to be
set to DATA A so that the compression & Equalizers are disabled, ALC is
optimized, and for the K3 the rear panel connectors are enabled. Ar
An up converter from 10kHz to 500kHz with typical Elecraft quality would be
acceptable by me. I have one already but not of the quality I would expect from
the boys in Aptos, so would gladly purchase & build their kit.

I got a boost of 15dB on my hearing aids and it works great with the rear K3

I use RMS Express with my K3 & KX3 and wonder if I am the only one that has a

Every time RMS Express changes the radios frequency it also changes the mode to
USB.
I have to then change it to DATA so the TX & RX equalizers are centered, PTT is

I find diversity reception useful on 20 Meters when operating on the Alaska
Pacific net. One antenna is a Beam pointed toward Alaska. The diversity antenna
is a Vertical. With this arrangement I get the nulls in the beam pattern filled
in with the vertical and can hear operators off the side and
I would like to see this built into the P3 as an option. If it switched both
the IF & RS232 I would buy it.

I found at Field Day I needed the front panel illuminated as well as my
clipboard. I have rigged a small LED on a 6" goose neck attached to the power
plug. Works well enough that I can turn off the KX3's internal backlight making
the total power load unchanged.

Tuning noise is now absent without even an antenna or VFO NR on all but 10
meters so it is no longer an issue with me.

When I first tried the digital modes with my KX3 I had mixed results. When the

Once I added isolation & attenuation between it was a snap to adjust and get
working. It is best to start with the receiving portion usin
Every time I enter a frequency and then cycle through the modes instead of AM
it comes up "AM S" with "LSB" even though it appears to be only a distorted
version of AM. I know synchronous AM is not available on the KX3 and the KX3

I use RMS express with my K3 & KX3, it's an up dated version of Airmail with

Just be careful with the heat gun or hair dryer. The clear front panel can be

I have been using my KX3 mobile for the last 2 months. RX is as good or better
than any other mobile I have operated and at 10 watts I may not be strong but
consistently get complements on the audio. Expect the noise blanker to be
improved in a future software update.

I use my KX3 with an isolating (transformer) attenuating cord @ 5 watts with a
24 foot wire antenna and it works very well. Tried to keep it simple with the
KX3 for portable operation.
I use a SignaLink USB with my K3 & it also works. very well @ 10 watts.

KX3 doesn't pass signal audio.
Has button tones and CW monitor tones.
XG3 input shows correct AGC "S9" on all bands but no CW tone output.
