Not to start a flame war about N vs UHF connectors, I prefer N and built my KPA500 and Hardrock 50 amps with them. My KX3 remains BNC, and any cable I have that is disconnected often is a BNC, sometimes with a BNC male to N female adapter, which are really common. No one but Hams still use

My K3 Has all BNC connectors on the back. My preference as it travels some for Field Day, special events, etc. Makes it quicker and easier to set up and take down. On Sat, Apr 10, 2021 at 11:00 AM Don Wilhelm wrote: > Larry, > > One local ham had me change the UHF SO239 connectors to N

Larry, One local ham had me change the UHF SO239 connectors to N connectors because he does not trust the UHF connectors. I know he recently sold it, maybe it is the same one. It is easy to change them back to UHF type, but it definitely did not come from the factory that way. 73, Don W3FPR

[Elecraft] K3 with N connectors ?

Good morning all. Quick question. I recently bought a nice K3 ser # 89xx ,and it came with 2 N connectors on the back instead of the usual UHF SO-239. The seller said it came from the factory that way. Is this common ? I have never seen this before. Thank you, Larry k6ro
