Every K3 includes the KIO3 I/O interface that provides connectivity to a PC. Every K3 owner needs this to install firmware. It's standard.
The K2 (not K3) has an optional KIO2 interface. Perhaps that's the source of the confusion. 73 de Dick, K6KR -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of david Moes Sent: Saturday, March 31, 2012 6:09 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 - Poised to place my order Isn't the KIO included? I do plan to hook up to the PC also to the sound for psk, DRM and SSTV In the future the transverter adapter is probably one of the earlier add-ons for the RX antenna and then some additional filters. then later the sub receiver. ++++ more. not sure if I need the KTCXO3-1TCXO for general use. but might help with DRM and some of the digital modes. Thoughts? After seeing the ads in QST and spending a year or more researching comparing and saving the bucks I'm convinced that the K3 is a perfect fit for my needs plus. It will be my main station rig plus will go on the road for events and to the cottage. > If you are going to hook the radio up to a computer for contesting etc > you will probably want the KIO board and if you use receive antennas > the Xvtr board. > > I have two K3's and love them! > > Mike W0MU > > W0MU-1 CC Cluster w0mu.net > > ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
