For that arrangement, you could also have the sets be vertical, rather
than horizontal as shown. Remember, EACH and every individual connector
has 4 possible orientations. It's possible to Murphy-proof even two pin

Thanks for the great link Ron.
Too bad that most bug users can't even hope to reach the level of
Denise's expertise in the use of a bug.

BTW, I got a couple that are marked Philmore, a common brand in parts
stores, and they seem to ohm out properly- all connections made and
nothing cross-connected. I wouldn't buy anything without return
privileges, though.

Because an RS232 port is much more nearly universal. Because it's pretty
easy to add USB support to a serial port and a problem to add
serial support to a USB port. And, if you really want a USB port with
sound card included, design one, or get one of the several vendors of
standalone boxes that

That's a great recording, John! It's a great service to those who want to
hear what sort of chaos reigned at the height of CW on the high seas. That
was in the 60's and 70's when
There was an article in QST a good while back about this. Theer were
two things that needed to be done, one of which was a fuse between the
battery and the power supply so if the crowbar triggered, the PS
wouldn't burn up, and the other was a resistor added so the 723
regulator would be protected
That`s the second hint Lyle has dropped. I'm not going to hold my
breath, since I don't look good with a blue face, but

I do understand why Elecraft has (probably) decided to end the QRO
amplifier project. It would have been difficult breaking into a small
market with an expensive high end product and not loose money. And
If I were you, I'd wait. You can almost certainly get a KXV3 for free
soon.

Hmmm. I wonder if the new KXV3A will gain or lose any capabilities
(besides compatibility with the new 2m module.) And
Was any mention made of when these items (maybe even at the Dayton
price) would be available for web site ordering?

It sounds as youre not doing enough, though.
Satellites are an answer for you.
Or get a 2M amp and a long boom antenna and do EME.
Or even better, don't spend the money.

If you want to put an external amp on a 10W K3, consider a high power
amp. You can get a few hundred watts with 10W in from some fairly
inexpensive amps. In fact, if oyu've got an amp already, then a 10W K3
is a way to get the very good RX and some significant power at an
economy price, while
And unless I'm confused, the very inexpensive Unified Microsystems
band decoder will do the right thing for automatically bandswitching
the Herc II.

Hi Mike,

Our little 2D fasteners are an integral part of these designs,

I believe we have sold 2D fasteners to experimenters in

VERY easily programmed to use a PS2 keyboard to send FSK, PSK and CW,
using the KY command, when connected to the serial port.
I've still got the K40 that I used with my IC756PRO once upon a time
in a similar role.
