Dear Grant, The reason for this is that “no ham wants to pay more” to get a betterfacility. Not even 1 penny!! When I used to work at Madison Electronics inHouston(God Bless the Busick Family)

The new synthesizer has 10 to 15 dB less phase noise. This means much less noise modulation/interference from strong off frequency signals. The dynamic range (which was already outstanding) is

Hi Dave, Quote: I just state all that to say that there is definitely more to daily operation than the Sherwood rating alone. Of course this is true. Lab measurements can never approximate

Sorry I have been away from this post for sometime. I was reading that you can upgrade your k3 with a new synth board. What would be the advantages of doing this? Chris W7CTH

You can buy RG8X with the connectors on it from the various cable guys and also an adapter from BNC to UHF. I use all BNC in the shack and adapters where required.

The Hara is about the same as last year.. VERY wet floors in the bathrooms.. part of which is a case of "bad aim" - and the rest humidity finding nice tile surfaces to condense on. but with it running

Unfortunately, no resolution has been found to our K3 issue down under, a lot of promises made, no fulfilment of the promises. I do not give Elecraft permission to reprint any more of my emails

Does the External PR 6-10 preamp come with the cable to connect between the preamp and the 12 volt connection on the back of the K3 and a connector to connect to pin 11 to the ACC line so the preamp

Hi - I'm about to finish a K2 and have never worked with BNC connectors before. Can I get a few vendor recommendations as well as how to best run something like that? I'd need 50ft. at the most

Interesting.... But that rating puts it high based on narrow spaced 3rd order IMD. T hat may be important in some situations. But it also ranks my lowly Flex-1500 higher that an IC-7700 or IC-7800. I

I might see about the speaker amp upgrade with the DSP board changeout, depending on the cost, however I use headphones most of the time and headphone amp is not involved, just speaker amp. Speaker

Mine was purchased in 2009 K3/100-F $2,089.95. It does everything I want, but I do have my eyes on the sync board and the DSP since this one was never updated last time it was made available to

Jim, I did some paperwork checking then verified by trying to use it, came up not installed. I never purchased the internal tuner :). It's not there so I don't have to think about taking it out.

Ian, Thanks for the most helpful suggestion. I never noticed that the K3 had a Switch Tones function. Mine is now on. Of course, this still doesn't solve the basic problem, so carefully articulated by

Somewhere in the archives resides my sad tale of blowing out the front end of another radio because when I intended to change bands, I inadvertently activated VOX and then bumped the

I have been to Dayton four times 2009,2010,2012 and last year 2014. It is agreat Hamfest if you can overlook the crowds and the run down facility. Hara Arena is indeed a dump. When I see people that

Some people insist on learning by hearing, so it would help if you enable the switch feedback tones: CONFIG menu, SW TONE -> ON. [1] However, even experienced users can still be caught out -

In my opinion, the VOX button is in totally the wrong place. I probably find myself on the next lower band five times a day and no amount of training is going to fix this. When I'm on 40 this dumps
