While nice looking, these are soft cases and I would not think they are appropriate for checked baggage! Dan W3dka

The net is at 1800Z on 20m and 1845Z on 40m. Try those times. There were at 10 to 15 check-ins on 20m SSB and there were about 13 check-ins on 40m SSB.

Lee: Mike: Aviation headsets are a different breed. I suggest that some internet searches will clarify the differences. For example: https://www.freymond.ca/HAM/FT100Headset.html shows an interface

Couldn’t recommend Rose’s work highly enough. She’s made me a cover for my K3 and Hexkey (in fact that’s mine, 2nd row down in middle) and a Carry-case for the K3. very well made, very sturdy,

Hi Lee, I wonder if the mono plug is for the mic and the stereo plug for the phones? My Heil head set is set up that way. The electret mic will need bias which you can select from the menu. Heil

John: I highly recommend the personalized bags made by Rose N7HKW. You can find out more about them here: https://www.smugmug.com/gallery/n-mX9LCZ/ 73, Carl N8VZ

Hey group, I'm thinking of doing a vacation-style DXpedition and I'm looking for a good case big enough to carry a K3, mic, small switching power supply and etc. It needs to be tough enough for

I flipped on my Astron PS which powers my K3 and it was dead. I checked the fuse in the Astron-35M and it was blown. I replaced the fuse and as soon as I hit the power switch I could see the fuse

Greetings to all. I would like to operate a Telex 750 aviation headset formerly used in my past life. My goal is to use the headset for hands free ops at the shack and future mobile/portable ops.

I heard nothing on either 14Mhz or 7Mhz nets from Santa Cruz CA. Keith WE6R Elecraft K3 Tech

I think you were an hour early...1800Z Conditions weren’t the best, but the net was there 73, mike. n0mpm

Got a few questions if you have one. Cheers K7FL

I listened for about 10 minutes on the 14.3035 at 1000 Pacific Daylight time and about 10 minutes on 7.280 at 1045 and never heard anything except a couple of tune-ups ... Nothing was making it into

Ok Keith, I'll check them out. Thanks 73 Jarmo, OH8KVA la 18. huhtik. 2020 klo 17.46 Keith_WE6R (keithtrinity@...) kirjoitti:

Hi Jarmo; Ohm the 4 little blue coils, L1-L4. This is easiest done on the adjacent capacitor pads. One or more is probably open. We have the parts, but may have to pull them from the Tech

Thanks for the replies. Elecraft is replacing my defective KTCXO3-1 1 ppm ref oscillator. I appreciate their mighty fine service. 73, Ken N4KS

Thanks Keith, The problem was faulty mixer, I swapped the 2nd RX mixer in place of 1st mixed and now I can do the tx gain calibration in all bands. Now I just need to fix the mixer. -- Jarmo,
