I bought a K3S and then I upgraded my #4XXX K3 which has two receivers with
every upgrade that Elecraft offered. It was mostly just a fun project, but
it's also a backup for the shack. One thing though, I swapped all the
filters and just put the 2.7KHz ones I got with the K3S in the K3. And I

Is there a menu item that says what synthesizer is installed?

Far worse than the K3 with the old synth in it.

I wonder if I can upgrade my K3, (Sn # 53, yes 53), to the HRO-500
concentric knob? Anyone done that?
And yes, I have expressed interest to Elecraft for the synth upgrade.
We (K8AJ and myself) will be buying a K4, but when it shows up, um, she
gets primary use of it.
I'll be allowed to
to see what is in your radio.

Was the KSYN3A synthesizer ever built into the K3 as a standard item? If so,
beginning at what serial number?

Hi,
Remember those filters are Roofing Filters, not the normal filters you
see in a rig, and use to isolate a CW signal...
The digital filter, (you just dial the bandwidth you want from the front
panel), in the K3 far surpasses anything I have used in the past, I get
to very narrow

I bought a K3 SN 8858 just before the K3S was announced at Dayton. It
had the new synthesizer. I was curious to see what the difference was
between the two and ran a few simple tests in my alleged lab using an

Wow. Thanks for all the replies!
There are some options that I don't care about, like the extended receive
range. I would like the I/O board, DVR, 100w, ATU.
Not sure about the transverter but if I find a K3 that has it, fine. Is the
main reason for getting the transverter option is so you

I agree.
My sort of early K3 ( s/n 17xx) simply has received every possible
upgrade put including the new synth board and the new I/O board. So is
pretty close to the K3S seems to me. If I was unlucky enough to have
purchased the last K3 I would have simply put in all the upgrades. Both

The new I/O board was also an option that was sold separately as an upgrade
to the K3, as was the KXV3B, where the pre-amp was located. If you find a
K3 with all those upgrades plus the synth (like mine ;), it's pretty close
to the same thing as the K3S.

The K3 had the new board after SN 8800.

The K3 has a bipolar HPA, the K3S is FET. In my case the bipolar is more
reliable and has lower TX IMD.

You can look at the numbers on Sherwood Engineering's Receiver Test Data

If a K3 has been upgraded to the latest synthesizer - the KSYN3A - what's the
