I've known it happening on other transceivers and it has turned out to be a relay David G3UNA

It's a lot easier to achieve correct and even pressure using a spring clip that presses on the body of the device, rather than one end. Several shapes available. I can understand the desire to use a s

I would caution against the Hefty Fist technique. This can distort the tab and/or the panel it is attached to so that part of the tab is no longer in contact. I recall a torque setting for optimum con

Not something I normally get involved with, so, please satisfy my ignorance: what are the main parameters we are looking for, is it just temperature stability, drift, low noise, all of the above? What

I think 400W is nicely backed off and conveniently coincides with our regs. Lest we forget, there is a relationship between stress and reliability: I'm guessing that voltage is the lowest problem with

I would be tempted to send just the suspect board to the UK agent for a go/no-go test. David G3UNA

The IC2KL was liquid cooled from the devices to the outside world but still employed a fan to ambient air. It is a very nicely packaged amplifier but used a separate psu and was still fairly noisy as

I have the opportunity to erect a rotatable Waller flag, though with difficulty or, much more easily erect 2 fixed flags at right angles with diversity in the K3. I would appreciate opinions on the me

I've been looking at this device and I'm a little put off by the adverse comments from some buyers. I would need an expert by my side, so, if this works for you, I'd like to know how easy it was to wo

Wayne At these power levels is it practical to fit a resistive pad to emulate the 50ohm source impedance of a signal generator? With the low phase noise, low harmonic output of a K3S I now have a fair

Thanks, that will be helpful to get me going. David G3UNA

Jim I just bought a K-Pod. Would you care to share your macro listing? David G3UNA

Mike "Would you not buy an Elecraft radio just because one person mentioned a failure of some kind? BTW, Pelican replaced the case the broken case in question. Mike" No, but the way you gave us the or

Well, Mike, if you've seen Pelican cases torn up by UPS then there's not a lot of hope for the contents. I'm not buying Pelican. David G3UNA

My old pilot's case is very sturdy, but weighs around 3.4kg, K3 weighs about 4.4kg. There's room inside for headphones and paddle to stay inside weight restriction for carry-on luggage. Add cut-out fo

Hi Richard This is not an answer but an idea on the use of the denuded K3: I wondered if it could be used to set up a remote-control station. David G3UNA

Hi Rudi Reading the pdf information, I gather what you can see is merely a picture, not a screen. You will need to connect to a computing device of some kind to tell the unit what you want it to do. 7

It might work with a Raspberry Pi. See this http://www.hamradioscience.com/raspberry-pi-as-remote-server-for-rtl2832u-sdr/ which is for a dongle, but might well work with the DXP. There seems to be mo
