Re: [Elecraft] QUICK QUESTION

look for the SMA connector next to the BNC antenna connector. That will tell you if the KX3 has a 4M or 2M module. Opening it up is quite easy, as it is the way you change the internal batteries, so that works too. If the installer checked the 2M or 4M box on the transverter, you get a clue as

Yes, it will have an SMA connector for the 2 meter antenna out the same side as the BNC antenna connector. 73, Lyle KK7P On 2/6/18 1:58 PM, Michael Goins wrote: Is their an easy way to tell if a KX3 has the 2 meter module in it without opening it up?

Mike, Yes, look for the 2 meter antenna jack - an SMA connector near the BNC jack. 73, Don W3FPR On 2/6/2018 3:58 PM, Michael Goins wrote: Is their an easy way to tell if a KX3 has the 2 meter module in it without opening it up? Mike, k6wmg

Re: [Elecraft] QUICK QUESTION

If it has the 2 m module, there is an SMA jack on the right end. Otherwise, there is a plastic plug in the hole. wunder K6WRU Walter Underwood CM87wj http://observer.wunderwood.org/ (my blog) > On Feb 6, 2018, at 12:58 PM, Michael Goins wrote: > > Is their an easy way to

Re: [Elecraft] quick question about antennas

When I wired an addition to our house some 40 or so years ago, one of my circuits from the service box started in Romex, converted to steel conduit, and then back to Romex. Since the grounding connections were properly bonded to each other, the building inspector in Los Gatos, CA approved it.

It would be easiest to use one's skill and send this using a paddle. Ideally the signal strength should be derived from the receiver's S-meter. RST599 at my QTH is the very much the exception than the rule. It should not be beyond the bounds of possibility these days, electronically to compute
