I read the whole thing, too. It appears that the improvements are measurable...the only question is, Is it worth the trouble? It is obviously an awful lot of work. The short answer is probably no -- it's not worth the effort unless you really need to eek out a few dB of additional headroom

Maybe Wayne might weigh in. I have only ecperienced an overload once. A mobile passing by decided to call me during a qso. I was not impressed. I would wonder what the tradeoff might be, if any. I will not be modifying my k3 anytime soon. If it aint' broke, don't mess with it. 73 Gary Vk1ZZ

Re: [Elecraft] K3 mods by I7SWX

Hello Wayne. I do agree with you that the K3 is an amazing transceiver. But this is mostly the reason why a ham buys his gear. So, in a business point of view I think that an improved K3 plug-in mixer, designed by Elecraft, would sell! Electronics is part of the HAM-hobby for me and many

[Elecraft] K3 mods by I7SWX

Hi! I just read all about the I7SWX mods and I was wondering what Elecraft's point of view is in this? Are these mods really a major improvement? (Are is it 'crap'..) Are there any plans in the near future to build a new mixer module with this technology? What about the other mods; -

Re: [Elecraft] K3 mods by I7SWX

Twan, The K3 is one of the highest-performance radios available (very high on everyone's list, including Sherwood's). A small additional improvement in one or two parameters may be of interest to a few operators. The other 99.9% of K3 owners do not need to make any modifications. 73,
