[Elecraft] searching for K3 Manual with hyperlinked pages in the Table of Contents

Frankly I'm surprised, but the K3 manual available online doesn't have hyperlinks for the page numbers in the TOC. Is there a version available somewhere with hyperlinked page numbers? Usually this is caused by not saving the PDF with the correct options. If there isn't one, then I encourage

[Elecraft] My K3 just wasn't working right today

I've had the K3 and P3 for a while. Bought them used from a SK estate. I've always felt that it hasn't quite worked 100%. I've followed the manual and Fred Cady's book about adjusting audio, gain, etc. Today for the DX contest, I just couldn't make consistent contacts, but I made some. Whenever

[Elecraft] New KAT500/KPA500 setup and utility software problems

Hi there, I'm assisting my godfather with setting up a new KAT500 & KPA500 to add to his K3/P3. Issues I am having: 1) KAT500 makes quite a racket whenever keying up. It seems to settle down, but as soon as I speak, it freaks out again. He has two antennas...a hex beam on ant 1 and a G5RV on

[Elecraft] "Hot" setup for Field Day with op headset, logger headphones, and speakers

Hi all, With Field Day behind us, and since our club runs mostly K3's, I thought I'd ask if anyone had suggestions for the best way to configure the K3, use adapters, audio distribution box of some sort, etc., to allow for a headset for the operator, headphones for the logger, and speakers for

[Elecraft] K3 & Heil HM-10 Dual

Hi all, I setup a K3, that my godfather is borrowing, while his Kenwood is off the air. I reviewed the webpage on the Heil Sound website here:  https://heilsound.com/heil-amateur-radio/support/dsp-settings/all-things-elecraft/   Unfortunately, the page refers to the mic with regard to the front

[Elecraft] K3 slightly off frequency

A few of us in Fremont, CA have a weekly 10 meter net. I have a friend with a K3 who always sounds off frequency. When I use my K3, I've been told that I am off frequency. There are a couple of KX3 users who don't seem to have a problem. When I use my Kenwood TS-590 I seem to be on frequency.

[Elecraft] Beware of the speaker magnet on the KX2

The other day I turned on my newly acquired KX2 (thanks Santa!) and found that the audio had a horrible buzzing noise. I started to assume the worst, but I didn't have time to troubleshoot it. This morning, I turned on the rig and observed the buzzing again. I turned the rig over and started to

[Elecraft] help with improving transmit eq

Hi all, I have a newly acquired slightly used K3.  Feedback on my voice audio quality is that it sounds tinny with no low or mid range.  Unfortunately, the K3 manual really doesn't provide much guidance on how to adjust the transmit EQ other than the mechanics of what buttons to push.  If I
