Hi Jim

Thanks for the information  - possibly you might suggest what the end user
might do to fix the KX3 pin 1 problems on the other connectors?

There's probably not an easy way to fix it -- it's established by how the radio is built, and changing would be major surgery. These are things that Elecraft has to fix.

What we CAN do is "put band-aids" on the problem. Several basic measures.

1) Bond chassis-to-chassis of all interconnected equipment, bond from that equipment to all grounds, and carefully bond all grounds together.

2) Place ferrite common mode chokes on cables plugged into connectors with Pin One Problems, tuning the chokes to the frequencies where interference is a concern. Follow guidelines in k9yc.com/RFI-Ham.pdf

3) Keep cables plugged into connectors with Pin One Problems as short as practical.
