A downstairs remodel ended up with me losing most of my workspace...the good news is that it let me justify getting a KX3, so it's time to sell the K3.
Just back from a check-up at the factory, this is serial #359 with: Filters on main board: 13, 6, 2.7, 500Hz, 200Hz Sub receiver with 2.7Khz filter KBPF3 general coverage RX bandpass module KDVR3 digital voice recorder KPA3 100W module KAT3 internal ATU KXV3A RX Ant, IF Out and Xverter interface K144XV 2 meter module copy of Fred Cady's K3 book, 2nd edition the factory manual (if I can find it) >From the repair report, they found problems with burnt pins on the KPA3 module, which were replaced along with the corresponding socket. The KXV3A upgrade was added along with the REMIOUPGD, KSYNTH3 stiffeners and K312VMDKT Updates include: 8 volt regulator filter capacitor power meter diode upgrades D36 & D37 new firmware upgraded 8.215 trap with robust components gold pins: 6 pins for 12V, RF board to KPAIO3 riser gold pins: 6 pins for 12V, KPA3 to KPAIO3 riser gold pins: front panel, P30 and P35 their summary reports that the radio meets or exceeds all factory specifications, and I'll include a copy. Current prices for this in kit form is $4262 -- asking $3,300 with FedEx Ground shipping/insurance included to the lower 48. Non-smoking home and except for a couple of rub marks--that you won't see unless you're looking for them--it's an easy 9 out of 10 cosmetic condition, with all controls working as expected.
