The mod revision sheet of the digital IO board shows the 69.8K soldered to pin #1, and the 100K soldered to pin #20. The remaining leads of these two resistors appear to be soldered to pin #9 along with one end of the 137K. The other end of the 137K goes to who knows where. The cut trace does

Roy, Yes, they are relatively critical. Only one minor point - they do not "produce" - 4 volts of ALC, instead, they allow an ALC voltage of up to -4 volts (from the amplifier) to be translated to the positive ALC voltage required by the internal circuits in the K3. If you skip to the photo o

I was told last Friday by Scott at Elecraft that parts for the mod were arriving that day, and that documentation and parts would be available very soon. I took this to mean within a week or so. I believe that a mod that adds pullup resistors for bandswitching the Yaesu Quadra amp will become ava
