It very well could be the pin connections.
This weekend I started intermittently losing TX audio and when holding
TUNE, it would go into TX, display 0 watts, and put out no power.
Shutting the K3 and power supply off and turning everything back on
seemed to correct the problem once but then
If your K3 does not have gold pins on the front panel, and they
are getting oxidized, strange error messages may occur on
power-up. Either do the gold pin mod, or hit the old tinned pins
with DeoxIT.

Jed,
I would suggest unplugging the KAT3 and re-inserting it. Sometimes that
will wipe the contact pins of any oxidation and correct the problem.
Consult the K3 Assembly manual to see how to install the KAT3, reverse
the steps to remove it.
Repair is possible if you are capable of

I saw parkour listed (which I couldn't have done even when I was younger

however.

Hello all:
Over the weekend I was getting an ERR AT3 on my K3 when I first turn on the
radio. I did read in the manual about removing the KAT3, but decided just
to try setting the Config to "not inst" and the message no longer appears
during power up. The radio seems to work just fine without the

They recommend turning agc off and manually adjusting RF gain.

Alan,
Yes, set the KXPA100 tuner to bypass - switch on the front.
You will be using cabling as shown in Figure 4 page 11 of the KAT500
Owner's manual. The "output on transceiver that provides closure to
ground on transmit" is the RCA jack on the rectangular box in the cable
between the KX3
A little help / guidance please.
I have a Kx3 w/ Kxpa100 and soon I will be adding a Kpa500 / Kat500 to this mix.
When you add a Kxpa100 to a Kx3 you set the power on the Kx3 from
0-110w. If you click tune on the Kx3 it tunes the tuner in the
kpa100. Full integration
How does all this work
Thanks for your help Graziano,
I'm using a cable made by Dan Tassel/SPE and I think it is the same wiring as
your diagram shows.
I did finally get it working this morning. After comparing your diagram with
my wiring I was looking at software port configuration more closely and I
noticed
They arrived Thursday. Between Thursday night and Friday morning I built
the amplifier. Thursday afternoon I built the tuner. No issues with
either except the tuner was missing a silicone thermal pad. An exchange of
emails quickly determined I could use one I had on hand. Nice to get quick
I am glad that you found the problem relatively easily Barry.
I am wondering who makes quality lugs and crimping tools? I am not
impressed with the ones that I buy at the big box stores.

Hi Peter.
I would have used the K3S power control anyway, but I'll modify the
circuitry to accommodate the K3S TX Inhibit.
A QSO should be possible on 2M (even without the linear). My take-off to the
West is good and the slightest lift in conditions seems to get me to West
Wales etc.,

Thanks Don.
The amp ALC line uses an audio oscillator and diode to generate the negative
voltage, so I can leave it out or add an extra gate for 5V or GND.

I teach modern jive which is now far more popular than ballroom dancing
which I trained in in my 20's. Now in my 70's this has a very healthy
following and is far easier to learn without private lessons. I met both my
XYLs (40 years apart) at dance venues. Mostly popular with >40 year-olds.
I believe at least some of the DSP filters in the K3 are FIR (Finite
Impulse Response) ones, which should be phase linear. The roofing
filters will not be phase linear, so I would think you could get away
with using a narrow DSP filter, as long as you used a relatively wide
roofing filter.

Ball room dancing class in college was a great way to meet women!
