K3 Receive Function Attenuated Immediately After Transmission
All T/R switching in the K3 is via PIN diodes, not relays. But there are relays in the band-pass filters. These are only switched on band change, normally. Please contact support for troubleshooting s

Peaks, parks, and prayers: CW & SSB islands in a digital sea

Random Wire
Definitely! That's what the KAT3A was designed for. (All of our radios embody the Spirit of Field Day, going back to the K2. That means working with crazy, ad-hoc antennas.) There are two ways to use

More KAT3A automatic antenna tuners in the pipeline
Given the number of requests we've received, we've decided to do another run of KAT3A modules for the K3/K3S. We have a small number in stock, ready to be shipped. Orders beyond that will be filled as

APP connectors
I've had zero problems with APP connectors, in any application. They're an em-comm standard, and have been far less problematic than Molex or other connectors. We assemble them according to the manufa

K4 Update: Transmit Features -- Emphasis on SSB

K3: Macro to make radio beep...
Here’s one way. You can send a string, say a letter ‘T’ (etc.) in CW mode with tone output only by embedding “<“ (RF off) and “>” (RF on) characters in a KYtext command. For example: KYW<T>; The ‘W’ f

CW Noise Pedestal
I believe the excess fan noise problem was eliminated with a capacitor across the fan drive lines. There’s a mod kit for the K3. It should already be present in the K3S. There is of course a pedestal
