I bought my KRX3 kit in 2008, put the box on a shelf, and never built it. It's
for sale now to someone who will build it and get some enjoyment from it.
Kit includes standard 2.7 kHz filter, plus 400 Hz cw filter, in box as received
from Elecraft.
Current Elecraft price is $739.90, plus

I know that I could cut off one end of
my cable and solder on a male connector. I also see that Radio Shack has a
pre-made cable described as a 6-Ft. DB9 M/F Extension Cable #26-117. I'm
leaning toward this option because the Radio Shack has nice knobs vs. screws
to attach
I am a cw guy and use the standard 2.7 kHz 5-pole filter and the 400 Hz
8-pole filter. I find them to be an excellent combination.

Currently the BFO pitch is adjustable in 50 Hz increments. Could this
please be changed to a minimum of every 10 Hz? I think most cw ops will
agree that 10 Hz increments would add worthwhile flexibility.
I think this was discussed some months ago, but I never saw that it had been
resolved.
If you're using WriteLog software, K3 bandswitching is a breeze -- Simply
type the first two digits of the desired band (14, e.g.) into WriteLog, hit
Enter, and you're there (14000). Want to go to an exact frequency? Type
it and hit Enter. And, after you're there, you can even fine-tune
Willis,
Don't forget, your K3 will have CWT which gives a visual indication of cw
zero beat. It works very well.

Dick,
If you're using Writelog, in the Call entry space simply type the exact
frequency to which you want to QSY, hit Return, and you're there! Maybe
some other logging programs allow this.

Don't worry about making mistakes, Frank, whether they be procedural or Morse.
We've ALL been through those first few QSOs and made plenty of errors.
Probably the most common beginner's mistake is to repeat unnecessarily. If
someone tells you you're 579, you have a good signal and he's
I, too, hear the clicky noises, but using cw with PTT (rather than QSK).
I use 400 Hz filter, AGC-F, and an external keyer.
The cw Monitor audio level could be increased to match the receiver audio
capability. I am using 8 Ohm headphones, which may be part of the problem

K3 #426 just found its home here in New Smyrna Beach, FL. Now, what do I
do, start building or work the ARRL CW test? Guess.

Just received a Lisagram that my K3 (ordered 6 June 07) will ship in 5-7
days. Also, Saturday had a pleasant and informative meeting with Eric at the
Elecraft display at the Orlando Hamcation. Nice weekend.

This is an important point that I should have made before. We need an option
to ignore any input on the paddle input (or CW input) unless PTT is asserted.
Amen! Rather than using a Spot button, I send
a few dashes from my key to hear my sidetone when zero
beating someone. Less
Mine, too.
Will the guy who ordered his K3 assembled, please stand up?

Hi Hank,
No, of course not. It means that, for whatever reason, you don't want to
assemble it. No other meaning was intended. I was surprised that so many
chose to assemble theirs.
Cheers,
