HelloThe latest release of Win4K3 Suite now includes the ability to have cc
cluster spots displayed on the spectrum scope. It is possible to display only
the spots, or also who the spotter is. Clicking on the spot or double clicking
in the waterfall will QSY to the frequency. Spots are
Good suggestions, Hans, noted for a future release. Some have been mentioned

Roland,
I have never seen that kind of problem. It does sound like something
may be corrupt in the EEPROM.
You may want to try resetting the K1 to factory defaults (which wipes
out your menu settings and replaces them with the stock factory defaults).
Before you do that reset, record all your
Hi Don,
i did all the steps Mike suggested to me - some more e.g. resoldering some
suspicious pads. The K1 is still in the workbench. I will start building the
internal atu, but will first fix this issue.
Before resetting the radio i will put a small audio/video file on the
internet, and give you
With backlight on, RX current should be roughly 170 to 230 mA (no AF signal)
depending on band.
TX current at 5.0 W should be about 1.0-1.4 A in CW/FM/FSK-D modes and 1.4-1.8
A in SSB/AM/PSK-D/DATA-A/AFSK-A modes. Actual current will vary with band and
antenna load impedance.
The reason 5.0 W
This simple response to a current requirement question is also a testament to
the amazing design decisions used to make this little gem what it is.
Designing products for a hobby you are passionate ( and participate) in
produces amazing products.
Thanks Elecraft

The reason 5.0 W current drain is lower in CW/FM/FSK-D modes is that the KX3
uses its higher-impedance PA transformer winding at this level. The upper limit

FYI, streaming to the Phonak ComPilot does wear the battery down in a few
hours, you can keep it plugged in to the charger while using it (provided
you are not moving around, of course!).
I've mentioned this on at least one other group, but will repeat it here for
those who haven't heard it.

The problem is ONLY with rig control -- if you run it manually, with no
rig control, it works fine. That is, set the rig suppressed carrier
frequency for the band you want, use JT65 below about 2 kHz audio, JT9
For me, it happens *more* when WSJT-X is not the focus. I run OS X 10.10.1.
The problem doesn’t disappear when WSJT-X has focus, but it’s not quite as
aggravating. I usually just hit whichever button doesn’t shut the program down
(I forget which that is now).

First, let me thank all of you who generously shared your advice about
interesting, warm places to spend the holidays and Be the DX.
I have acknowledged some of your suggestions personally. I will get to
the rest of you shortly.

You might set up a command macro that switches antennas and changes power
