Mark,
this is exactly what I do. The LiFePO4 has a little more weight, but the cells
are robust
and have the correct voltage and probably can do more charge/discharge cycles.
I think the trouble with a voltage regulator is not worth the very little gain
in weight.

the comp level should be zero in DATA modes. This is normal and cannot be
changed.
You should also activate the -s option.

Anyone have this problem with an open mic inside the radio? When I am on
52.795 mhz, I get a signal of s-3 and when I turn up the volume, it
squeals. I can actually speak through the bigger grille opening on top of
the radio and
good morning,
the KRX3 arrived and I installed it yesterday. After doing the VCO calibration
and filter settings it is working fine.
I have observed two things that are not clear to me so I wanted to ask if this
is the same at your K3's.
When I switch SUB on and I have the antenna shared

are the birdies dependent on bandwith also?
yes they are. I can see them on the Panadapter very easy, and they jump

QSOs with it and am very satisfied.
Question: Should I upload the latest software?
yes.
What is the latest NON BETA version that is stable and works?

I am trying the latest beta firmware with my K3 in Pactor mode.
Like in a former try I encountered a problem, when I activate the -s

My transceiver is sending 2.5 kHz higher than the dial display says.
With the first try all was ok. Then I started to try different

My K3 speaker performs flawlessly and puts out wonderful audio until NR is
turned on. It then produces some shrill resonances at some frequencies.
I find these resonances disappear when using NR on external speakers. I

hi all,
has anybody connected a Ptc-2 to the K3 and how this was done?
I think I could use Line in / Line out and PTT in.
Line is stereo, should I use the tip? or connect tip and ring?
any comments on how this should be done and how does it work?

Gill,
It is at least from #656 because my unit was affected too.
The mod is easy done with the instructions from Elecraft.

If you have a serial no between 660 782 you need to do the mod for
grounding the front panel mike connector.

I have set Config VFO OFS to ON to use the VFO B for fast tuning, but it no
longer works. I know it did, but no more.
VFO OFS to off or on changes nothing.
I have the latest firmware loaded.
RIT/XIT are off of course.
does anybody know what could be wrong?

Or maybe just require two presses of VM? That's the way one of my talkies

I have the impression that with the NR engaged the overall volume is much
lower than without. Is there a possibility to adjust the audio volume / gain in
the NR settings somewhere?
I have seen this in the K2 DSP for rtty mode.
Next question: 2 of my friends who tried the K3 this afternoon think
hi Bill,
I have tried a Plantronics Computer Headset in the past with my K2.
I made an adapter like you did but with the internal 5V bias.
Audio reports were worse than with the dynamic Kenwood microphone I
used before.
I tried this special microphone because G4ILO recommended it on his
