What is the reason for using an aftermarket knob?
My Main VFO knob is metal straight from Elecraft.
Yes it would be nice to have a matching one (in style) for VBO
(the aftermarket ones I have seen don't appear to match the Elecraft style)
Just curious why people are using them?
All this bantering is getting me wanting the KPA more and more.

Where did you see about Elecraft suggesting "earthing the crystal can"?
That is interesting

Hi Victor,

I picked up a Magnifying Headband years ago when I built my K2.
It has been extremely handy over the years, and practically a necessity when
building kits.
Items I would say that are good to have in general are:
Patience (don't rush, enjoy the build)
A good set of screwdrivers (Craftsmen).

I would full agree
I briefly considered a putting a KX3 in my Jeep, but then figured it would
probably
be distracting and not get used that much (because of being distracting)
I used to ride years ago and would not want the added distraction on a
motorcycle.

Thank you for the insight.
Last night I pulled the K3 back over to the workbench and probed the
lines coming to and from the ref lock board with a oscilloscope.
What I discovered is that the rear of the jack had pushed back out of the
socket.
Once I corrected that everything worked fine.
On a s
notch in the KPA3 shield for the 2
meter antenna cable if the K144XV instructions are followed.

I had to remove that standoff to get the shield out (and back in)
so I could cut a notch in the shield for the two meter antenna cable

I have a couple of macros worked out for that, I need to see if I can optimize
them then turn them into a rotatable macro.
