Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Feature Ask

A great little radio it is, agreed. I have two of them that I use as I.F. radios on my 10 & 24GHz portable microwave station setups. They are perfect for that function, using the 2m option as the I.F. especially when mated with a PX3. I drag my microwave gear all over the place, including

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Feature Ask

Come on. This is a great little radio. But it’s designed to be s great “little” portable radio. How many will carry a 10 MHz ref oscillator to a mountain top. If you’re looking for a full fledged base station with all the options, get a K3S. Sent from my iPhone ...nr4c. bill > On Jan 21,

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Feature Ask

This should do it. Actually, once the temp comp procedure has been completed, you’ll have the equivalent of a very expensive TCXO (about +/- 0.2 PPM). Wayne N6KR > On Jan 22, 2018, at 4:59 PM, Dave AD6A wrote: > > Thanks Wayne, I'll try doing the extended VFO temp comp

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Feature Ask

Thanks Wayne, I'll try doing the extended VFO temp comp procedure. Sounds like that will get me close enough. Cheers, Dave AD6A Sent from my  iPhone 7 Plus On Jan 22, 2018, at 8:04 AM, Wayne Burdick wrote: Hi Dave, The synthesizer used in the KX3 doesn’t have means for

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Feature Ask

Hi Dave, The synthesizer used in the KX3 doesn’t have means for locking to an external reference. However, if you do the extended VFO temperature compensation, then calibrate the reference to WWV (etc.), you’ll typically be within +/- 1 or 2 Hz of your actual target frequency on all bands,

If at all possible I'd like the KX3 to have a 10MHz frequency reference input. What are the chances? Maybe this is something I could add as a mod? Cheers es 72, Dave AD6A Sent from my  iPhone 7 Plus __ Elecraft mailing list Home:
