Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 transmit out of band question [ANSWERED] Hi Bert, As I understand it, and this is only what I have gleaned from others, is that in order to TRANSMIT out of band you need the unlocking software (for MARS frequencies etc) which Elecraft can supply if you explain why you need

Elecraft have confirmed "You would not need to use the KBPF3 for only 50 kHz out of band on 20M" Great news. Thanks to all you great folks. 73 from David GM4JJJ > On 25 Feb 2016, at 13:40, David Anderson wrote: > > Thanks also to Ken K3IU who has tested his K3 with and without the general >

Thanks also to Ken K3IU who has tested his K3 with and without the general coverage bandpass filter enabled and found no difference in receive sensitivity between 14.350and 14.400. Question answered! 73 from David GM4JJJ > On 25 Feb 2016, at 12:46, David Anderson wrote: > > Perfect many tha

David, Transmission only 50 kHz above the ham band should not be a problem. If you see a dropoff in receive sensitivity, than add the KBPF3. 73, Don W3FPR On 2/25/2016 4:02 AM, David Anderson wrote: Still not got a definitive answer to my question, which I repeat: K3 - Do I require the gen

Still not got a definitive answer to my question, which I repeat: K3 - Do I require the general coverage bandpass filter option to allow transmission just for an extra 50 kHz above 14.350? ( provided the radio is unlocked for transmit beyond the ham bands). 73 from David GM4JJJ > On 24 Feb 2

[Elecraft] K3 transmit out of band question

2016-02-24 Thread David Anderson
I am hoping to use a K3 to transverter from 14 MHz to 144 MHz with an existing transverter. I need to cover from 14.000 to about 14.400 MHz on transmit for the weak signal end of the band. I believe that the K3 can be enabled via software to transmit outside the limits of the ham bands. The
