[Elecraft] Option building question

I currently have the bare bones KX1. I also have but have not built/installed the 3080 kit. I'm planning on getting/building/installing the ATU. Question: Does it matter what order these are done? Should one be done before the other? Michael N4NMR -- No virus found in this outgoing

Gee, Tom, are you going to miss her? (hi-hi - couldn't resist). I know the feeling and I don't understand it. This is NOT junk. Well, to us, anyway. To her, maybe. Good luck on your endeavors. Michael N4NMR -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: [Elecraft] KXB3080 option update

For those of you who will be going to Atlanticon this weekend, I will have either a sample kit for the KXB3080 or a finished board. (I was hoping to have tomorrow off to put it together but that is looking doubtful now. I will have it both Friday night at the Elecraft table (next to checkin)

RE: [Elecraft] KX1 on AAAs or Lithium Polymer?

Wow, from what I (briefly) saw at that link, why would anyone want to use LiPos? Yes, they may provide some advantages but the disadvantages/risks would certainly (in my mind) overwhelm the advantages. Just my .02. Michael N4NMR -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[Elecraft] #3120 if FINALLY Alive and Well

[Elecraft] KX1 parts count

I couldn't find this anywhere that I looked. Does anybody know off the top of your head the parts count of the KX1 and the various options? I'm considering adding this to my Christmas list. Michael N4NMR -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition. Version: 7.1.362

RE: [Elecraft] very small antenna

Jess, you should also look at the PAC-12 from Pacific Antennas. Packs smaller than the other two (Buddipole and MP-1). And does very nicely on all bands. Michael N4NMR -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of mc Sent: Saturday, October

[Elecraft] Soldering station questions (please, no wars)

1) Mine may be going bad: I suspect my temp controlled soldering station is going south on me. In building my K2, I've noticed that it takes longer to get the solder flowing. Are there any _cheap_ but somewhat accurate ways of testing a station like this? (Sorry, don't remember the brand name

[Elecraft] Which mic

I'm thinking about asking for a new mic for Christmas. Is there a nice (but not big $$$) mic that will work on the K2, the 703 and the 817? I'm assuming that I would need several adapters but that is ok. I'm leaning towards a Heil type mic. Probably a hand-held or headset. (But the Heil desk

[Elecraft] RS sale items (more)

Last week I was at my friendly RS getting a new alarm clock. Lost my old one. They had a special sale on the RS version of an Atomic portable alarm clock. Only $20. And it is a nice size for packing or for on the desk. Normally $30, I think. Nice clock with super lighting. Number is 63-964.

RE: [Elecraft] eHam Article

That's certainly going to hurt eHam's chances of getting more articles from people. I didn't read the article but if you start applying censurship, you lose writers very quickly. And supporters, I would imagine. Now if his advertisers forced him to remove the article, that is just as bad.
