Re: [Elecraft] What became of the Elecraft's KPA1500 and KPA 800

Frankly, It seems to me that good QRO amps are a glut on the market. (see THP, etc.) To be competitive in that market, any Elecraft offering would have to be highly innovative and I just don't see much more that can be done. IMHO Doug, W6JD K2 #1626 K3 #23 - Original

Re: [Elecraft] K3 how often do you use it?

Prior to the advent of , first, the K2 and then the K3 I owned my share of huge radios which almost required two men and a small boy to move. (well I exaggerate ) and I well remember having to hand carry a TS-930 through the length of the St. Louis airport on my way to KP4...not a lot

Re: [Elecraft] OT: DZKIT Sienna?

Seriously, this is tounge in cheek right? For a long time I've thought the Kenwood TS-2000 was the worlds ugliest radio but then the Sienna appeared! Looks like a WWII Russian tank radio. No offense to our Rusian friends. Doug W6JD - Original Message - From: Al Lorona

Re: [Elecraft] K3 Firmware Req for SWL band and Using Memories

Frankly I see no problem with the way it is currently implemented. I find a really simple way to get back into the desired band segment is to make sure that the B vfo is set to an appropriate frequency and do an A - B swap. 73, Doug W6JD BTW, as an old software engineer I can

[Elecraft] What do you WANT??

I continue to be amazed at the amount of bitching about the firmware mods / upgrades. If tho se other JA radios are superior then for heavens sake buy one! Of course if you should need service, package it up, pay huge shipping charges (they weigh a ton) and wait 3 months (my experience

[Elecraft] Fwd: [Elecraft_K3] Filter Confusion

Jim... The XTAL filters ARE the roofing filters. Due to the low IF in the K3 it is possible to provide very narrow filters rather than the wide filters in the conventional YaKenIc radios with higher IFs. The ultimate selectivity as determined by the DSP filtering, which is perfectly

Re: [Elecraft] solid state hf amp

I've used an Ameritron / MFJ ALS-600 for about 5 years and it works well. Also have the Ameritron QSK-5 pin diode switch, a nice combo that gives you full QSK. However, if you need customer service, forget it! BTW, I noticed in the latest QST that Array Solutions has a QSK box that
