Yes, The NR needs improvement (at least on SSB) and the notch should be
inside the AGC loop. It has been said so many times before.

comuterSDR-software combo in same cases instead of the K3 SDR. H,

I got some more suggestions. One of them was to adjust the CW sidetone

It is off-topic but I need your expertise.

But maybe Ford was not playing a spy, so
The ATU goes into bypass if too much RF power is applied into a high SWR
antenna (as measured by the bypass VSWR. The tuner is rated for an
antenna load (as measured by the Bypass VSWR) of 10:1 SWR at 600 watts and
3:1 SWR at 1500 watts. If you exceed these limits, the tuner will go into

Good Day, one and all,
I would like to see an extension speaker made by Elecraft for the K line.
I would imagine that the same chassis as the P3 could be used with different

There is a regular weekly Elecraft SSB net that meets every at 1800Z on
14.3035 +/-. We have participants from all over the country on K2s, K3s,
and KX3s. You're welcome to check in, and someone will be more than happy
to give you a signal report.
Hope this helps.

hi all , thank you for you responses to my query , I appear to have the hi
current warning issue sorted by a firmware fix that elecraft have provided,
further testing ( when I get my full array of antennas back up ) will hope
fully conclude that it's sorted and all is well !

All the problem data occurs when running 25-30w from the K3 just for
purposes of configuring the KAT500. There's no high power involved. I
just measured the antenna again as follows:
test setup: MFJ 259B thru 1:1.5 Amidon UNUN to coax feedline
antenna: 40m sloping dipole, center fed,
I'm trying out the Data Modem Terminal used by Army Mars. The K3 is not listed
as a pre-configured radio in the drop down menu for RIGS. I expect one of the
Kenwood models might work but not a clue which one.
I'm Navy MARS and don't currently have an Army buddy to ask.
