[Elecraft] [K3] Tokyo High Power

Does anyone use the Tokyo High Power linear amp (HL-1.5kfx) with their K3? If you do I need to ask how you connect the auto band switching to the linear with the K3? The manual doesn't refer to the K3 at all but refers to Kenwood. It appears to use a Serial connection from the rig to the amp

[Elecraft] K3 AM

John, Setting your power control to 110 watts will produce about 28 watts of carrier power and about 78 watts peak which is normal. I have received very good audio reports on AM both running barefoot or using my linear and limiting my carrier power to no more then 120 watts. I am assuming you

When operating in digital A modes after holding the TUNE button, which gives the proper power out indication, the following happens when going into PSK transmit: 1, There is no power out of the K3 2, The ALC readout is showing the usual 3 bars and can be adjusted 3, There is no monitoring tone (

[Elecraft] K2 For Sale

Everybody, After receiving my K3 and moving it in my main station I found I don't have any need for my extra K2 (I still have a K2-100 in the downstairs station). This K2 is the qrp model with 11.5 watts out on all bands (plus some) and about 10.5 watts out on 10 meters at 28.388 MHZ. This k2

[Elecraft] K3 Temperature Readings

[Elecraft] K3 FM Operation

Okay people I have a question. How do I get more then 2 watts out of my K3 on FM? I have the FM filter installed and turned on. I have the FM filter bandwidth set at 13 KHZ.. I can tune successfully and put out power in all modes except FM (2 watts out max. The MF mode is working I checked it

[Elecraft] K3 Low Power FM

Here is an update on my low power out on fm. With all filter in place and with several checks on configuration and reloading the radio's firmware I had no success in getting out any more then 2 watts out max on FM. I removed the FM filter and replaced it with a .001 UF capacitor. I was

[Elecraft] Computer Speakers

Anyone, I will soon be receiving my K3 and I do have a question. Normally my computer line out connects to my computer speakers. When I get my K3 is there a speaker connection on the K3 that will also output audio out from the computer such as when not using the radio but still using the

Re: [Elecraft] KPA100 Issue

Thanks for your reply Geoff. I think that the reason the screws loosen isn't because of twisting out, but because the heat sink material that is placed between the power transistors and the heat sink is cold flowing. Many plastics will, under pressure, actually flow a bit and change it's

[Elecraft] C227

Mike After looking at your picture I think I would only replace C227, Clean up the board around it, then test it out (in a dummy load). Don't think the relay is gone but those type of capacitors do sometimes fail. In your case you were trying to couple good VSWR into the rig but haven't

[Elecraft] Re RFC 15 miniature?

Bob, I have just finished my K2 a few days ago and there is a lot I can relate to your question about RFC15. First and most important, these chokes are very fragile and can open up quite easily just by flexing the leads too much. Second I also found the size of these chokes from brown to

[Elecraft] KPA100 Standoffs between heat sink and board

Ben, I just finished building my KPA100 and it is quite happy in the K2 at this time. I agree with your observation of the milled out hole on the heat sink. I tried placing a lock washer between the heat sink and standoff (against Elecraft instructions) which resulted in not having the screws

[Elecraft] Freq Memory

Bernie, On My K2 (#5779) if I change frequency on the same band and wait for 10 seconds the K2 puts that new frequency in memory so when the rig is powered off , then back on it returns to the frequency it was last on. If you change the frequency within the same band and quickly power the rig

[Elecraft] Problem With VCO Stablity

When I operate my K2 between 7180 and 7190 Khz the VCO seems to worble or becomes unstable. Any other band or frequency is fine. I have removed RFC15 and replaced it with a direct wire connection then later a ferrite bead. C91's value was increased from .001 uf to .01 uf. c*88 is still 68pf
