Yes. :-) We'll also have the K3s at the Hamcom convention in Plano, TX, this weekend. 73, Eric WA6HHQ http://www.elecraft.com

The 2nd RX should ship 30-45 days after the first K3s begin shipping. It was the last item to leave engineering and the pipeline of parts and PCBs takes time to arrive here. Plus we have a lot of item

The K3 transmits through both bandpass filters (before the final amplifier stages) and through low pass filters after the PAs. The bandpass filters do an excellent job of removing out of band noise ge

Hmmm - That must be a new form of energy ;-) Of course I meant 'harmonic'. 73, Eric <wa6hhq_lists@...> wrote:

In multi transmitter situations I would expect that external bandpass filters would still be required, as they are for most rigs. In some cases you might be able to get away without them, but the exte

Our field testers are a very diligent and experienced bunch. They've been working hard (on your behalf, as well as theirs) to exercise every possible K3 feature and uncover opportunities for refinemen

K3 Status Update: August 29, 2007 Note from Eric: I apologize for not posting earlier. I planned on posting an update for everyone before I left town for the JA Ham Fair last week, but ran out of time

K3 Status: Sept 6th, 2007 All of the K3 raw PCBs are in house and are in various stages of production. (SMT reflow, wave soldering, hand soldering etc.) Some are complete and are in production test. W

We are heading down the final K3 production stretch, and we can finally see the finish line. We received all of the first production run K3 painted and silk-screened enclosure sheet metal late Friday.

You must have at least one SSB b/w filter in the K3 when we ship. (2.7 kHz or higher.) These filters are used on TX and must be in the rig. 73, Eric WA6HHQ

2.7 kHz. 2.1 kHz is way too narrow for SSB TX. 73, Eric <faunt@...> wrote:

Hi Bill, Yes, we allow you to select which filter is used in TX for -each- mode . We default to the 2.7 or 2.8 filter for SSB and CW TX, but you certainly could TX through a narrower filter. The only

One correction - Frank is incorrect about the credit amount when swapping the 2.7 kHz 5 pole filter for the 2.8 kHz 8 pole filter. The credit is $30 off of the purchase price of the 8 pole filter. Als

We are continuing down the final stretch and so far things are looking pretty good. Last week: Wayne and the Field Testers continued to test the firmware for the K3 and the '1 button press' K3 firmwar

The first production K3s started shipping today! (Oct 9th) :-) We worked overtime last week and through the weekend to get everything in order. We had the usual last minute glitches (missing hardware

Hi Everyone, I've had my head down working out all the fun production issues ramping up K3 production. I planned to post a status update Monday, but have been too busy to do so until today. Things are

Hi, K3s are going out the door on a regular basis, but we're still shipping at a rate slower than I would like to see. My gut feeling is that we are off of our last plan by 1-2 of weeks. Last week we

One important correction to my posting, the correct date below is MAY 10th. 73, Eric (Guess I'm seeing double - still at the office..)

Hi Guys, I apologize for any confusion regarding external, negative going, ALC usage with the K3. I'll try to clarify a bit here. (I would have replied earlier, but I only get the time to read this li

I see there has been some confusion regarding deposits in recent emails. To clarify this, we just added the following to the shipping status web page. 73, Eric WA6HHQ ---- A note regarding K3 deposits
