Welcome to the same issue I have had since last August.
If you hook up the radio to a powered PC or laptop USB jack, does the problem
go away? On K3S 10176 it does. Still setting PTT-KEY to anything but OFF-OFF
with USB disconnected should not light the TX front panel lamp or go full power
I agree with Dave that we should start putting the Elecraft product model as
the first token in the mail header; e,g, K4, and stop lazily recycling a prior
header with a totally different topic in the body. Of course, worse yet is
somebody responding to a digest such that we get the entirety
K3 100 watt transceiver #0734 with ATU, 400 Hz 8 Pole Filter for CW, 2700 Hz 5
pole filter for SSB & digital; 6 foot red/black power lead with PowerPole
connector. NO sub-receiver, NO DVK, NO general coverage module, NO
transverter, NO KUSB cable, NO microphone
Factory serviced for low noise
Six weeks ago, my 100 years old Grandmother’s dryer broke down. My bride and I
went to Lowes to see what we could find that would be simple to operate, and
did the same at the local Home Depot. Grandmother is about 1230 miles from us.
One thing we noticed that was common to all the models in
FedEx –
Put a failed delivery sticker on the gate an eighth of a mile from our porch.
Claimed they did so the next 2 days, but they did not. When I called they
told me to pick up the item 30 miles away in another town. Asked them to
deliver to our town which they agreed to do and claimed
I tried a search on Elecraft.com for the E980190 cable described on page 38 of
the KPA1500 revision B manual.
No results found…

Help:
I noticed that the IC-705 drawing shows an ATU connector presumably for linking
to an external ATU. Maybe the intended market is not SOTA, portable, Field
Day, or anything outdoors.
Perhaps a paddle is in the accessories we have not seen yet.

I note that Harry went from Elecraft to Japanese radios, Flex and Anan. I
presume he means the Flex M radios and the newly released Mk 2 Anan which do
have knobs while the predecessors do not.
I thought about my recent usage of my K3. After pressing the power button, I
set the output power
Regarding W0YK/Ed’s comment –
The 8-ary FSK of FT-8 may be buried in the ambient noise at my/your/somebody’s
QTH. Like LPI communications, knowing where to look in frequency and time
allows the decoder to combine noisy samples and recover the original; in the
case of FT-8, a 63 bit message.
I believe that putting WIN10 hardware in the radio will be a benefit to the
OEM. It will make the radio become obsolete faster and allow more sales for
upgrades.
Maestro, SunSDR, and Anan MK II radios all have Win10 PCs embedded. Those
radios’ embedded PCs are all obsolete already.
As NW8L pointed out, there are simple updates to restore proper date displays
in GPS receivers.
An update should have a release date inside the build with the associated GPS
week number when it was released. With a little coding, this will allow the
receiver to display date properly for 1024

// You cannot use Heil's adapter for the front panel Foster 8 pin connector on
the K3s because they short the ring to the sleeve for some unknown reason. So
in order to use the K3s front panel 8pin Foster socket, you need to make your
own Foster to stereo mini phone
For N1MM, use the up and down arrow keys to get close in S operation and then
press F11 to zero beat -
F11 Z B,{CATA1ASC SWT42;}
If it is a dense pile, a little XIT offset is a big help.

Eric et al -
I performed the wattmeter calibration from page 52 of the user manual,
and then did the 5 and 50 watt TX gain calibration using the K3(s) Utility.
I notice that during the first transmission of AFSK RTTY into a Palstar
dummy load, the KPA1500 output power grows to the desired
Why not just use a cheap GPS receiver instead of a WWVB receiver. It should
work anywhere in the world, and give time keeping accuracy better than 1
microsecond relative to UTC. Most of the time location accuracy is around
10-30 meters, so equivalently the time error at a GPS receiver is 35 to
15 matches
