Kelly, I find that due to the proximity of the VFO A to the fine coarse key, occasionally the freq changes. But is that your answer to my question?

Is there a way to program the PF1 key to toggle between coarse and fine? Mel NE9A

Before Elecraft will repair the unit, they will require some of the updates/mods . They charge for this. Then You will have to pay for the pair. Last time I had something repaired it cost $90/hr. I do

Wayne Thanks for that update. I knew that the K3 would not have been built with that flaw. Mel NE9A

Don We used a beverage ant on the RX antenna port during FD on the k3 and had no problems. That would have been a terrible design flaw if the k3 allowed the receiver to overload during transmit. Hope

If you look at the diagram for the RX antenna (kxv3a/b) you will see that the RX antenna is switched out during transmit. if you have a Kadybook look at diagram figure 8-25. make sure you engage the r

I had a k3 with the k3iob. I also have a remote tuner that sends out a signal when the turner finds a solution. is there a way that I can input this signal to the k3 to indicate that the foreign tuner

but are you saying they dont value their time?

I have been watching this thread concerning the usb to serial cable. I am not sure why people just don't purchase the Elecraft one. Mel NE9A

Chris Sitting here listening to the SS contest. I love it. I like the ease of operation and the capability of the filters. I think my serial number is 1138. I think this unit is going to keep me happy

Merv You are correct. I upgraded everything except the two synthesizers and it did cost me 1200. I did the suggested updates pluse the k3iob Mel NE9A

The is no FT in fldgi. you will have to download wsjt-x. in there you will find ft4 and 8. Mel NE9A

Lyn You are correct wsjt-x is for ft8, but for so many of the other digital modes fldgi works just fine. Mel

Wayne I appreciate Elecrafts efforts. We need to support the only (at least I believe) American radio manufacturer. Besides it is a terrific radio. One thing that you might run in to is that Dxpeditio
