Check the crimp connections on the spade connections that slip onto
the circuit breaker inside the unit. When I went to check mine the
other day a simple tug on the wire pulled the wire right out of the
connector. Bought some new ones crimped them on well and I've never
had an issue since.
I've been trying to find if there is a way to do this but have been
coming up blank... Is there a way to send DTMF tones with the K3?

I'd really love to see this as an addition to the radio... I've got a
Heil Goldline which is a nice mic but its well overkill for what is
actually necessary. I kinda like the mic stand and all... I gotta

Soon there is going to be an option that will allow one to synchronize
the 2Meter transverter with the K3's LO. This should help quite a
bit. In the event that you want stability and accuracy there will
also soon be an option that will allow one to input a 10Mhz reference
and the K3 will
What would be even more exciting is for people who use things this
way Why not remember the last frequency you were on in that
segment rather than simply recalling a frequency Similar to the
way that memories 0-9 can work as band recalls then M1-M4 could become
segment recalls that
I was one of the beta testers and I tested the unit with the standard
oscillator. I haven't run into any issues and found the fixed error
across all bands to be quite nice. I never saw more than about 3Hz of
error no matter the frequency on the VFO dial. Thats not to mean that
if you have a
This was a known bug that was found in field test. I submitted it to
Wayne and he's all over it.

The A version is only needed if you wish to install the internal 2
Meter transverter. Essentially the only difference is the addition of
an IF in and IF out connector on internal TMP connectors. If you
never plan on using the 2 Meter internal transverter there is no
reason to upgrade.

You are using a DB-15HD cable that has all of the wires present. There are
some lines in the DB15HD that should be cut. If you get the official K3
cable from Elecraft some of the pins in the connector have been cut out.
The KPA500 manual will show you what pins should be present in a cable.
Make
KPA500 is about 13dB so if you can get about 12 watts out of your KX3
you'll get about 250 out of your KPA500.

I don't see how it could without having an auxbus port. However the KX3
may already output Kenwood data on the serial port. If that is the case it
might work to use the RS232 port on the KPA500 to talk to the KX3.

The pinout of the cable that should be used is in the manual. That pinout
illustrates the lines that should be connected and NO other lines other
than that which are displayed in the manual should be connected.

Actually bypass for the ATU is less bypass that one might sometimes
hope for and there have been times where even when in bypass the SWR
of a dummy may not look good however enabling the ATU, tuning, and
then going back into bypass can solve this issue. This is why the

Greatly appreciate Tom for help in the past and always loved hearing
