Hi Dana,
Right know the FN command that sets the four multifinction encoders is not
operational. Recently, Wayne has released a separate MG command for mic
gain, and CP command for compression in MCU release 2.73.
But I don't see a command for monitor level yet.

Also, if there's enough demand for an antenna-switch-only version of
the KAT3, we could offer one in the future. You'd then be able to
connect the KRX3 to the unused antenna jack, as with the KAT3.

Could someone explain, what Dual Receive is
supposed to offer the K3?
Can I transmit on 1 band, and simultaneously
RECEIVE on a different frequency? Can I
listen to 20m SSB and low 20m CW at the
same time? With 1 antenna?
What does the K3 say, that we can do with
this DUAL RECEIVE capability?
I hope Elecraft eventually looks into diversity receive.
With 2 receivers in the same box, and all the computer stuff,
I would think it would be possible to do some sort of diversity
reception, its real handy for swl and AM work, and can help
a lot on there modes also.
I could hook up the home
Monitor two bands simultaneously with some top-notch digital mode software.
Great for watching 10m and 6m when otherwise a tad dead.

No. This is duplex operation, not dual receive. The K3 is not designed for

This capability is in the initial release, using the KRX3 and KAT3. The
KAT3 provides a second SO239 antenna connector and then the ANT button on
the front panel allow the operator to select ANT1 or ANT2. The KRX3 can be

I would also like to see a DSP implementation of a noise canceller
similar in concept to the MFJ-1026, which samples QRN on an aux antenna,
and subtracts that from the signal on the main antenna. It can be very
effective for low band local QRN, but the MFJ implementation is not very
convenient

The KRX3's aux RX input includes a carrier-operated relay and
gas-dicharge tube.

Can't we use the RX antenna port on the $79 KXV3?

If there's no KAT3 installed, you still have a few

In addition to the SWR bargraph, which is available at all times when
transmitting, the SWR is shown numerically on the VFO A display during
TUNE (up to 99.9:1). Power in watts is shown on the VFO B display.
The only time SWR is not shown during TUNE is when you're using the
0-dBm transverter
Hi Bill,
I'm quite interested in the nature of your labelled keytops/keypads -
are these all part of one
giant molded 'pad', or are they separate 'button by button' entities?
Two large arrays -- one on the left side, one on the right. This
ensures accurate registration.
Are these soft
Hello Bill!
Is there an output available from the K3 that can be used to control an
external device as band changes are made?
Yes, the ACC connector provides band data output. It is intended to
drive Elecraft as well as third-party devices such as amplifiers,
filters and the like.
