Good Evening,
The sun is about to set on a very fine day. 55 degrees and sunny;
the hottest day of the year so far. For an hour and a half I hiked
across the property seeing which plants were getting ready to leaf out.
Lots of pollen from the alder trees but not enough to sneeze. I

I came across this article today. I haven't tried it but thought this
might be a useful tool for troubleshooting USB problems.

Installed the P3SVGA option board into P3 s/n 548, downloaded all K3, P3
and P3SVGA latest updates today. It displayed on Dell's model IN1920 HD
(18.5 inch) monitor with absolutely no problems upon fire-up.
A blessing to these 70 something year old eyes. Tnx Elecraft.

My kdvr3 seems to not be working properly. It will record OK, but the
playback sounds like a fluttering or motor boating sound coming in with the
audio. On cw it sounds like a machine gun coming in with the notes.
Anyone else experience this and how did you fix it?

Have two. Both with Clifton Labs preamp/isolation board. In die cast box.
Been used on my K3 VFO A and VFO B.
$75 each including priority mail.

Several posts were recently made regarding the small Radio Shack switcher

Anyway, one of those came available in a local estate sale for one of my ham

As asked via emails, I've converted the K2 software face to Web Start.
So a single click is all that's necessary to start up:

Don't forget, if you find any of the software there halfway useful,
please send me a QSL card! Over 1000 downloads but few cards.
I have for sale a cover set for the K3, P3 and KPA500. These covers are
made by Pat of PYI Radio Covers and are some of the best covers made. They
are vinyl with a felt-like inner lining. The covers are basic black with no
logos, names, callsign, etc. The K3 cover has a cut out for the front

WOW! That would be a GREAT option!
I just measured the serial output from the USB cable on my laptop, and I have
-6.23
on receive and +6.8 VDC on transmit between the RTS (7) and Signal Ground (5)
lines.
If it would work to simply stick a 1K or 10K resistor in series with the RTS
line, it
I'd use 2.2 K, but anything between 1 and 10 K should also work.

Geoff,
The stations located on the east coast are on EDST which is UTC-4 so
they should be running from about to 0600utc which is 8pm to 2am
local time. There is no schedule so stations will be operating as
they desire. The heritage stations may offer a schedule though I
have not seen
In about 1999 or 2000 the FT-817 came out with an entry price of
$799. The KX3 (kit) is $899. That is an increase of 899/788 =
1.13 or 13% over ten+ years. Sounds close to inflation for the period.
I sold my FT-817 to buy the KX3 as it looks to be a much superior
radio. It cost me about

Hello Group,
I've been using my K2/100 on CW a bit lately and have noticed that there are
low frequency thumps/pops on the receive audio at the rx to tx transition -
ie onset of keying (key closure). They are most noticable if the noise
floor is high or if there are other signals in the receiver
