Hi Erwin, Although I dont play with EME my suggestions would be as follows: K3/10 10 W Transceiver KXV3A KXV3A RX Ant., IF Out and Xverter Interface K144XV Internal 2 M 10w Module Kit for the K3 K144RFLK K144XV Reference Lock Board KTCX03-1 (0.5 ppm typ) High Stability Ref. Osc KDVR3 Digital Voice Recorder
And for filters I would use the following: Leave the 2.7KHz 5 pole filter that comes with the radio (It is use for all transmitting) and additionally get a 400Hz 8 pole filter or something narrower, depending on what you prefer for CW. For SSB I would look at the 8 pole 1.8KHz filter, it seems to be just about perfect for SSB in my experience but if you are going to be using CW mostly then leave the 8 pole 1.8KHz filter off of your list. I hope this helps, Jeff Cochrane - VK4BOF East Innisfail QLD, Australia ----- Original Message ----- From: "DK5EW" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, August 29, 2011 3:19 AM Subject: [Elecraft] want to buy a K3 - what options do I need ? Hello all, sri to ask you here but I'm brand new to the K3. I want to buy a K3 and don't know really what I all need. Main is a K3/10-F - that is clear. I want to use it with a external transverter for 144MHz like a Kuhne/DEMI/HA1YA I do not see clear what else I need for it. Mainly I wish to operate in 2m digital modes EME/MS and using it for contest on2m. So any help is welcome. -- best regards Erwin/DK5EW MMMonVHF - Beacon manager Meteorscatter contest manager http://www.MMMonVHF.de - The leading VHF - DX Portal News - Reviews - QSL Informations - Database - Propagation We do spread weekly VHF-DX-Newsletter www.mmmonvhf.de/nletter/newsletter.php ----- eMail ist virenfrei.
