Dick,
I am curious who do you think is going to pay for who ever it is to
build a system to you out in the desert?
That is a trade off for moving out in the boon docks. When we moved to
Colorado we had party lines. We lived in Parker and that was considered
at the time WAY out there.

Has anyone read the regulations that they kept hidden? Do we really
know what is in them?
I am not a big fan of the gov't sticking their fingers into everything.
I have no more trust in them handling this any better than everything
else the touch, regulate, control, etc.

Not sure where this thread has wandered but I program M3 and M4 as
quick splits M3 will split up 1 on cw and M4 will split up 5. You
can insert filter combinations and other options if you wish. This is

I am not sure if this helps.

It takes time. Proportionally more time to learn the code than it takes
to become proficient.
I can still remember sitting at the radio club meeting at our JR High

The 590 has some short falls. No 2nd receiver, some issues on 10m.
Only one roofing filter.
I owned a couple of FT-2000's and they were easy to use. Looked pretty

Have you set the baud rate in the K3 to that of the amp?
When the amp is moved from standby to Operate you should see a message
in the K3 that says KPA500.
You can set the K3 output with the amp and

The K3 is new and has the latest official 4.38 firmware. The KPA500

Run the KX3 on battery and turn off your house mains and see if the
