Hi John, I'm in digest mode because I don't post much and belong to many groups so don't want the mail box flooded with emails. So I use the web tool. Yes to all of those John. The USB port on the K3s

In my case most of those don't apply. Dead of winter here, no storms. The configuration has been like this for a couple years, I don't unplug stuff if it's working. Only possibility might be a transie

Thanks to all for the suggestions. Jim, I'll make a posting on that reflector. I'm in digest mode so it's a bit of hassle but will do. The RS232 port works FB though an adapter.

My USB port on the K3s has apparently failed. No communication between the computer and the K3s using the utility. I changed the USB cable still dead. I switched to the RS232 using a USB to RS232 adap

Under what operating conditions would have caused the finals to fail? I have a early model of the KPA500, sn 804 and it's been flawless. I have it connected with the KAT500 and my K3s. I wouldn't mind

I'd be thinking seriously of moving my company (if I owned one) OUT of California not just because of the virus but because of a number of troubling trends in California. A viable alternative could be

If you mean 7.6 to 7.7 Mhz then you need to apply the MARS modification which is a firmware obtained from Elecraft you will need to provide a reason, if MARS your MARS call sign. Also in that region y

Just out of curiosity I tried to find that parts kit (E850607) and it's not found on the Elecraft web site. Where did you find it? Some time ago Elecraft changed their web site pages, these kits were

Jim, I'm about in the same boat except I have the KPA500/K3s/K3. They are easy to handle, move around etc. I sold my Icom 756 P3 and swore not to own another rig that I can't tuck under my arm and wal

I have simular speakers not by Bose but by another mfg and they are amplified, one set has a 40 watt amp and the other a 20 watt amp, they are in the same price range. I used them on Icom radios and t

I've got speakers those you mentioned and others, but the Elecraft SP-3 sounds like what I want to hear plus it is easy to drive, I don't have to turn up the volume It's a great speaker IMHO Dale K9VU

Everett, Thanks for the offer but you are a couple hours too late. I ordered a new one and the closer tolerance TCXO. And yes I got the shipping cleared up. I go with USPS two day... 73 Dale, K9VUJ

Dude, take a rest. :) Dale j.

Yeah, there’s a lot more. At night I’ve been watching all the original StarTrek re-runs on Prime video. Some I’ve never seen. Three seasons, they’re all there. I really like Amazon Prime. I for one th

I pay once a year. If $38 is for a #20 or 30 lb package from the West coast to the midwest, then I will save a hexx of a lot of money in shipping for all the stuff I purchase on Amazon with my prime m

It depends on how much you use it. I use it alot. Dale, K9VUJ

18% for me. Still a lot to add. Dale, K9VUJ

In the case of the Elecraft SP-3 speaker it’s $36.84 to my location, Minnesota. And yes, it adds to the total cost of purchase not incuding the sales tax. I like Amazon a lot, I’m a prime member and h
