Dave - As I mentioned in my response to Bob earlier... the Honda that N9FN and I use in QSO parties as a portable station, handles his IC756PROIII, which takes more current than the K3, his SGC500, wh

Bob - I cannot speak to the EU2000i with the K3 & the KPA500, but N9FN and I use his EU2000i powering his IC756PROIII , SGC500 amp (running a full 500+ watts) along with a desktop computer with a pret

Randy - I also use a ZERO FIVE vertical (30' Flag Pole) with my K3, and yes, the K3 tuner is awesome... but I carefully measured the SWR at the shack (with 100' of LMR 600) and calculated the power re

If a P3 is not yet in your budget, I have a LP-Pan for the K3, along with the E-MU 0202 USB 2,0 Audio/Midi Interface. These units are in excellent condition. They are being sold to make way for a P3.

I have the following for sale: 1 - LP-Pan (no preamp) 1 - E-MU 0202 24-bit 192KHz USB 2.0 Audio Interface Manuals, discs, and most (if not all) cables included. $200 shipped to the lower 48. PayPal ac

I am NOT disagreeing, as I have NEITHER the 2nd rx nor the P3, and I do want both. However, I have about 360 confirmed, and 5BDXCC in the first 1000 so I think I qualify as an experienced DX'er, but T

Hank - I also have an LP PAN with Creative Labs external sound card. I may try to sell mine to get the P3 also. If yours sells, and you have other queries, please send them my way. Thanks, -Dave-

Rick - I am using my K3 with DXLAB... when I click on a spot the rig goes to the correct freq (including split if appropriate), and mode - SSB or CW... I don't do any data modes, so I don't know about

Barry - That is exactly the supply I am using on my K3... no issues at all. A friend had a few of them, and that is what we use when we operate portable in area QSO parties... I think it is a great su

David - I did recently set it to QRQ mode, and that would certainly explain it. A lot of my operation has been split, which turns off the QRQ mode, and that explains it. Many thanks for your help. -Da

Tonight I was on 40 Cw and narrowed my filter down to about 250Hz, and then wanted to shift it a bit. The "SHIFT" knob had NO effect. I pushed it to select the LO-CUT option, and nothing happened. I c

Joe - Please don't mislead Delwyn. The KAT3 is a great internal tuner. But if he wishes to continue to use his amplifier, and his antennas are not resonant, he WILL still need the external tuner. -Dav

Delwyn - You do NOT want to use the KAT3 tuner if you plan to us the AT-Auto. If you are happy with the AT-Auto, I think there is no need for the KAT3 tuner... however, since I do not have an external

That depends on how broad the antenna is. I do not have a '500, but a good friend says his gets pretty unhappy when the SWR gets up to 2:0 or higher. -Dave- K9FN

Before transmitting any more, verify the power rating of the Hamstick. I was under the impression that a Hamstick was rated at only 200 to 300 watts PEP on SSB. If that is the case, you need to try a

For 50 years I have used a foot switch for PTT... I have to keep my hands free for the radio, the key, and logging. If you can find one, the best footswitch I have ever seen is the heavy duty cast uni

Will - The Pro Set Elite 6 is the one I just purchased... I operate VERY little SSB, (only 4 SSB QSOs on my K3), but half of those gave unsolicited compliments on my audio. I believe the kC is just fo

Mitch - I cannot comment on the FT-950 vs the K3, but would suggest (as many owners did to me) that you not get BOTH the 250 and the 400 filter. That is what I was initially going to do... but instead

Rick - I am not certain, but I believe that Chuck, NO5W runs his K3 remotely... and I think that K9UWA does also. I know that K9UWA has can operate his Indiana station from his winter home in Florida.

Joe - I don't know if they are on this list or not, but I believe thatn NO5W uses his K3 mobile, and I know that KJ9C does also. I have not heard either of them mention any problems. -Dave- K9FN
