and for as long as I like and nothing bad happens. Rig indicates a low and stable SWR putting out 100W. This seems to suggest something related to the K3. Has anyone else experienced this? Bryan, ZL1NI __ Elecraft mailing list Home

Yes! I don't use the K3 internal keyer for exactly that reason. Bryan, Zl1NI .. The K3 built-in keyer is very good as it is, but I miss the automatic character spacing of my favorite external keyers (CMOS Super Keyer, Logikeyers, Accukeyers, etc

I do, all the time. I would be surprised if I was the only K3 owner that does. Bryan, Zl1NI I mean, who uses the built in speaker anyway. phil, K7PEH __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net

the factory defaults. This is true for the several other late model rigs of different makes I own and operate. I find the K3 very noisy and fatiguing in comparison to any of the other rigs I have when tuning around a relatively quite band. I Rarely use the preamp mostly have the attenuator in. Bryan, Zl1NI

Was the root cause for the reported audio blasts found? Bryan, Zl1NI Hi all, We're getting very close to a long-awaited K3 beta firmware release. Since the changes are extensive, we'd like to send the code to a new group of pre-testers in addition to our usual field-test group. Please

Will this be optional? Personally I don't want it. I have impaired hearing and bass response seriously degrades intelligibility for me. Bryan, Zl1NI The next K3 beta firmware release will include dramatically better bass response in receive mode (50-200 Hz). The result is fuller, richer

Thanks for all the helpful responses to this. I am running Rev. 2.78 here. It is good to know, given the way I operate, there will be no difference should I upgrade to an official release in the future that has the better bass response. Bryan, Zl1NI Will this be optional? Personally I don't

I have the 1.5FX, indeed an excellent companion to the K3, and the physical interface is made to measure. Bryan, Zl1NI With the exception of 6m, you have essentially that capability available in the Tokyo Hy-Power HL-2.5KFX which, thanks to Elecraft's loan of a new K3 for the show

Thanks Don. The only calibration I did for the W1 was the procedure in the manual. Bryan, Zl1NI Brian, Unless you used a very accurate wattmeter to calibrate the W1, I would believe the DL1. HOWEVER: The formula in the DL1 manual is not correct. 8.97 volts measured from the DL1

Using Heil ProSet here and very satisfied with the K3's audio for communications use. Bryan, Zl1NI On the other hand, plug a Heil ProSet with its 200 Ohm elements into an unmodified K3 and the -3dB point is 80 Hz ... low enough for communications use without being overly sensitive to hum
