 I don't see the AF Limiter (AF LIM in menu) listed as not implemented in
 the Errata sheet, but it doesn't seem to be working in USB with AGC off
 (v1.23).
 
 Anybody using the KX3 AF Limiter successfully?

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Question

The flashing LED is on the KXBC3 board and indicates the processor on that 
board is running.  Should be in the manual/ instructions for that option.

 Gang, I just finished putting together my KX3 with the filter option, ATU, 
 and battery charger.  I am just about to do the calibration for the filter 
 but I noticed that there is an LED or something that flashes, maybe once per 
 2 seconds?, inside the KX3.  I can see it through the key/paddle plug opening.
 
 Does anyone know what this is?  Is there meaning to the flash?  Is it 
 important?

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 s/n 1965 on the air - and a power-up question

Sounds like the ground return in the power connector wiring is open.

 I'm very excited to get my new KX3 on the air, and during my initial
 exploration of the rig, I discovered something unexpected. It appears
 that the rig will not power on if there is no antenna attached. I
 noticed this first when I disconnected the coax to change the antenna
 setup while the rig was on and in receive mode  - the rig immediately
 shut down. Then with the antenna disconnected I tried to power up - no
 response. After reconnecting the antenna, everything behaved normally.
 
 I did not find any mention of this in the manual. I don't have an ATU
 installed, perhaps that might have an effect.
 
 I am running from an external 20A power supply (a venerable TenTec
 252M), and the load is RG 8X connected to an LDG Z-11 autotuner,
 feeding an outdoor dipole.
 
 If this is normal behavior, does it have implications for doing
 firmware updates? Must the rig have some kind of load attached in
 order to power on to connect to the computer?
 
 In all other respects everything is working fine and I am very pleased
 with the rig. My first CW contact was Bulgaria on 10w from the east
 coast!
