I just added a jumper around (well, actually over) my L4. No need to risk
possible PCB damage by completely removing the RFCs.

The BL2 PC board is 1.5 x 3.8 inch. The enclosure will be at least 1.5 x 4.0

So, I'm going to make up one with those dimensions for him to test (the

Unless the RFC begins to move under heat and begins bridging to an adjacent
pad or trace. Even when being careful, SMT/SMD parts can slightly shift on
the PCB.
As a die hard CW operator, it's difficult to imagine that after 45
years as a ham, I actually worked my first CWSS. Shame on me. I had a
blast just SPing on and off during the weekend.
This was the first active CW contest I've had with the K3. While early

I just noticed that after a fun and uneventful (no failures) weekend of ARRL
SS CW one of my K3s has developed a strange symptom. I have done nothing
other than turn the K3 off last night and then on this morning.
Perhaps I pushed something by mistake, but I have no idea what that could

UPDATE:
I did a CPU reset (NORM / POWER ON) and the first time nothing changed. The
second time the RATE button worked once. Then no others worked, nor did the

doing the reset I saved my configuration and then reloaded
Ouch. Did you have an electrostatic event? All those buttons have one thing
in common: They are using the signal SCANADC1 which is routed to input X3 on

not the case, but if that input is zapped, you will have the

So there is

I am experimenting with recording QSOs. If I want to record my own

decent recording unless I want to blow my eardrums. When in LIN OUT

I had the chance to use a K3 during SS CW. I liked the rx and found it easy
to remove most of the QRM. Something I'm not used to! Since I usually
operate with antennas fed with open wire I have been accustomed to fine
tuning an external antenna tuner during automated CQing. The first time I

The only other thought I have is that perhaps the KPA100 PA transistors
are not operating at exactly the right point of their characteristic
curve. The only thing that will change the portion of the curve for the
