Hell if you wanna go that far I can hear and understand SSB as long as

So if someone has the 50uV elecraft generator (and can do 1uV as well)
why can't the gain calibration feature also calibrate the S-Meter as
well? Just add the insertion of a 1uV signal after the 50uV signal
allows the rig to linearize things and set the S9 point and then you can
set your offset

That's primarily it. We increased coupling caps and a few other values

I have a lot of confidence in SMT rework and I've done the C9 and C13

Have you run the TX Gain calibration for high power since you installed
the KPA3? I recommend running it through the K3 utility. You need to
run it on all bands. How to do so is outlined in the manual or made

Its not difficult to understand its just annoying. Essentially we're
all in agreement that the radio can do it. I think that the firmware in
the rig could actually make this happen 100% automatically. The only
difference is that when operating cross band split you're going to have
relays
I kinda felt that the K3 had a raspy and brash sound until recently when
I installed a filter that Elecraft has been testing. This filter helped
my K3 sound a lot more like my K1 and for that I'm quite happy. You

What would be slick is to see the I/O board with a PCM2902 on it as
well. Most operating systems have drivers for this IC and it just shows
up as a sound card. So if a 2902 and a FTDIChip were plopped down and
tied to a hub you could have the radio when plugged in show up on most
computers
You can do a lot more than 38400 over RS232 as well so even if the K3
goes to USB you're probably not going to see more than 38400 being piped
over. But yes audio could be added via another USB endpoint.

Where are these caps? I see them on page 28 of 52 on the schematics but
where do they physically live in the unit. I assume they are on the main
DSP board. Also as far as the grounded 1uF cap are you talking about the
lil decoupling nugget they had sitting there? Guess it couldn't hurt...

I'm having a hard time finding where these changes are. Were these changes

Just to be sure...
I've got a 50uV signal being injected into ANT1 of the KAT3 and a dummy
load connected to ANT2. I hear the signal on the main RX at S9 and
heard the signal on the SubRX (listening to the dummy load) at about
S2.5 (the third light is flickering). I'm not really able to affect
My best fun was when I talked our big CW guy from using the K1 rather
than my K3... His comment was life is too short for QRP. A few hours
of coaxing later and he was breaking pile ups with the 7W from the K1.
The look of amazement every time someone answered him was priceless!

What version of the firmware were you running when this happened to you?

Brett, I was running 3.14 firmware. I got a HI CURRENT warning on the

You may have had the CW decoding threshold set to high...

Ok I guess I'll throw my hat in too. This FD I started off with the K3
getting placed in the serious operators tent while the play rig was
down in the gazebo for our 2A.
The K3 with its newly fitted KRX3 treated us pretty good. One thing we
did find is that it didn't take a whole lot to get
Is there a place somewhere that provides the drawings of the Fabs so
that one can look at the schematic and then find the part w/o digging
into the boards?
Things such as this D25 issue. Once you hear about them roasting with
too much RF in then it makes a person think that it would be a good
