[Elecraft] Mobile Experiences

2013-04-14 Thread Tom H Childers
Hello all, I'm thinking about purchasing a KX3 for mobile use, and will eventually want to use it for MARS mobile use with the 100W amp from Elecraft. I'd like to see some comments from those who are using the KX3 as a mobile. Thanks, 73, Tom Amateur Radio Operator N5GE ARRL Lifetime Member

Hi Tom, You might want to take a look at the KX3 Mobile User Guide, posted on Elecraft's web site: http://www.elecraft.com/K2_Manual_Download_Page.htm#kx3_mobile I'm also a MARS op, and have used the KX3 mobile for MARS ops. The only issue I've found is making sure that the antenna is resonant.

I have been using my KX3 mobile for the last 2 months. RX is as good or better than any other mobile I have operated and at 10 watts I may not be strong but consistently get complements on the audio. Expect the noise blanker to be improved in a future software update. John Hendricks K7JLT
