There seems to be some confusion on this point. Once a KX3 has had the extended temperature compensation procedure applied, it will have drift of only about +/- 10 Hz in CW and SSB modes on 2 meters. This is not as good as an oven-controlled oscillator (which there isn't room for, of course), but it should be quite satisfactory for SSB and CW use.
If you use higher-band transverters after the KX3, using 2 meters as an I.F., any drift in external units will add/subtract to the total, not multiply the 2-m drift upwards. (Unless you're using a frequency multiplier -- that's a different story.) 73, Wayne N6KR ______________________________________________________________ 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 Message delivered to [email protected]
