This problem with a logging program seeing the K3 with LP-bridge

It existed for much more than a year. The frequency was low and tolerable.
The problem has been made lots worse with the newer versions of the K3

The latest K3 firmware revisions include a high-accuracy S-meter
command (SMH) that was targeted at the S-meter Lite application.
It's possible that other apps are using it, too, and trying to poll
for it too fast. In any case, Larry and I will investigate.

Not yet. But note that the KX3 supports the same rich remote-control
command set as the K3, which means it will work with HRD and other
third-party
Linux, Mac, PC - it all depends on the software developer community. I
would expect Linrad to work very well with the KX3, for example. In the
end, it is just a baseband I/Q output from the KX3. Any
soundcard+software combination that works with a softrock receiver, for
example, should work

Since this summer I am a proud owner of K3-10/F and don't want to waste

I guess that I have a problem with loose buttons in upper right corner of

For example, if I press MV button, other surrounding buttons are also

The other buttons do not move.
I suspect that the rubber spacer pad between the front panel board and
the 2D connector on the upper right corner of the K3 is not in place.
You can see the 2D connector if you open the top cover and look - the
spacer pad should also be seen on the front
Hi Dragan: If you press much harder than necessary to activate the switches,
the board on which the switches are mounted can flex slightly which makes
all the switches move. Pushing as hard as I'd care to in the upper right, I
can make the switches in that area move perhaps as much as 1
Hi Guys
I did not assemble my K2 (no 4099) which I bought second-hand and I now wish

Ray,
Locating those screws is actually easy. Look down between the Front
Panel and Control Board and you will see two hex standoffs about 3 cm
down and about 4 cm from each side panel. The screws thread into those
standoffs.
The one on the right is easiest - just remove the screw.

There is some gap between PCB and A, as tick as PCB is.

Don's quite right Dragan. I had forgotten about the corner bumpers. Mine has
them and there is still the small movement I mentioned. If yours is moving
much more than that, it's most likely a missing bumper.

Dragan,
Yes, putting some non-conductive material about the thickness of a PC
board is the solution.
Use some glue between whatever you material you use and the Front Panel
board. The material should ideally have some flexibility - like rubber
or nylon, but a stiff material (like a small
Don at all,
Thanks for help.
I fixed it by placing a small piece (6x6 millimeter) rubber, about 3mm
thick.
It's stiff enough to prevent movement of PCB. Now, feeling is much better.
BTW, I don't have a problem with this rubber buttons feeling.
Get used to it during Spectrum 48K time :))

I haven't seen much of anything lately about the KAT500. Is there any
updated info out there? I meant to ask Eric or Wayne at Pacificon, but they

Mike,
Enter BSET and look at the subRX antenna indication on the display. Is
it the same as that on the main RX? If so, the sub should receive on
the same antenna as the main RX (there is a 3 dB splitter in line).
If the sub is trying to receive on its AUX ANT input, that will be the

ERR DVR is most likely having the KDVR3 marked NOR (installed) in
