I am about finished converting an older (circa -2004) DEMI 144-28 transverter for use with my new KX3. Learning that the K144XV automatically switches LO freq. from 116 to 118 MHz when tuning above 146-MHz, I wonder if that feature will exist for the KX3 and where one could access a control line to use external to the KX3.
I will install the new DEMI PLL board when it becomes available to accomplish the same LO freq. switching and probably could control it with a 5v digital control line. The PLL will likely have multiple frequencies (memory locations for programming multiple frequencies). This project is for the interim until the internal Elecraft 144-28 MHz transverter becomes available. Actually, I am learning some interesting stuff using mmic's and Toshiba power modules. Ready for the "opening gate" to buy that KX3!!! 73, Ed - KL7UW, WD2XSH/45 ====================================== BP40IQ 500 KHz - 10-GHz www.kl7uw.com EME: 50-1.1kw?, 144-1.4kw, 432-QRT, 1296-?, 3400-?
