Hi All, Bought a July 2010 K3 that was factory built. Took it apart to install another filter (getting ready to operate W2H special event this Sunday from Lakehurst Naval Air Station, 75th anniversary of Hindenburg disaster).
Since I run the TX audio, PC IN & OUT, and RS-232 I checked to see if the inductors were jumped out. The radio has a version XD audio IO board. I performed the mods as per the tech note. My question is the web site states it is supposed to be already done on new K3s. Is there a cutoff date or serial number when? My concern is how many more mods may not be done on this radio? 73 Dave wo2x -----Original Message----- From: ka2zey Sent: Friday, May 04, 2012 11:45 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Antenna for a KX1 I have tried the suggested lengths given for KX1. I have a 24' wire running vertical up about 22' (the rest comes down to the KX1) and 2 16' radials connected to the black connector on the Poloma Banana plug. I am able to get a good SWR reading on 10 and 20 (still no contacts) but 40 is nothing below 4:1. Am I doing something wrong? Another user posted that they were using 42' with a 1/4 wave radial for each band. thanks, D -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/Antenna-for-a-KX1-tp5196274p7529252.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ 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
