KAT500 Utility on my Mac mini does not connect from the Mac to KAT500.
When I fire up the Utility, it stays in Initializing state until the
connection attempt times out. This is repeatable.

firmware using a separate KXUSB via FTDI

The link provided by Don W4FPR is a very good link. It does have some

Hi All,
Having ordered a KXPA100 sometime ago I watch the Shipping Status occasionally.
I would have to say its not kept very current.
So what is the real current shipping status of the KXPA100?
Thanks in advance,

The accuracy of the clock is very bad, but what he hey it only cost $60..

Everyone,
I have a K3 serial number 934. Having read the posts concerning all the
problems with the concentric knobs I was concerned about the knobs but they
were working fine. Well, several years later, finally the upper small outer
knob (audio gain) became loose. After trying to tightening

Has Elecraft started to ship the new KXPA100's. We normally hear comments
on the reflector from those who have received the first ones. It's been
very silent?
I placed my order within a few hours of the announcement for orders and have
not heard anything.
Thanks, Irwin - KD3TB

Hi Irwin,
Yes, we're now shipping the KXPA100/KXAT100s. As usual for a new product, we're
proceeding with caution so that any issues that come up with firmware or
documentation can be dealt with ahead of the bulk of shipments. We made a few
firmware and doc tweaks last week and make a couple
In Theoretical Physics it is common to use what physicists call God Given
natural units where constants like C for the speed of light or h-bar are set
to 1 (without units).
In this system, Power, which is [Energy] divided by [Time], is actually
Inverse [Time]-Squared. This is because Energy has
Furlongs per fortnight. No, wait that's torque.

Currently there does not appear to be a way to querry the kat500 to determine
if it is in tune mode nor to stop the tune using serial commands. The tune
command will return a command when it is finished but if something goes wrong
there is no way to definitively establish the state, nor turn
I purchased a Headset Buddy for my Bose QC-15 headphones but have been

Don,
My KSB2 is revision E, July 20, 2004, with the PSK31 ALC time constant
change of KI6WX built-in. It doesn't have the increased RF gain mod. Is
there a reference to the mod that you suggest with the R9 - 15K and a new
1K in the Q1 base?

When I last worked on shipboard CW consoles in the 1990's, nearly all of the

That reminds me of a story from my youth. My friend was showing his ham station to his

back yard.
80 meters? she said, in her thick Hungarian accent. Is that dangerous?

Horsepower works for me. When you equate power to horses, you get a much
more graphic understanding of waste than you do with watts. And anyone
who can't make contacts with 6.7 millihorsepower is doing something wrong.

Is there any chance you have T4 wound for the better efficiency at 5
watts ratio of 2:2:1:1 turns?
If so, be aware that this winding ratio is *only* for a QRP CW only K2.
If the KSB2 is added, it must be changed to the standard 2:3:1:1 ratio.
