Hi John, I can't do that just yet but I will when I get my new K3. Improved full QSK and better close in signal rejection during contest are also my primary interest, so it will be interesting to finally get the new rig and test for those issues.
I got my original K3 in 2010 and decided since I sure would like to have the new synthesizers and since I had never installed any of the Elecraft upgrades/updates, I would sell the old one and buy a new one. The actual cost output for a new K3, with everything updated, was very reasonable. Even though my credit card was charged the day after I placed my order, I did not hear anything from Elecraft, so I sent them an email yesterday for status update. It turned out that there is a 'delay' due to some small part out of stock, but my new "K4" should be shipped next week. [I say "K4" because any other manufacturer would have come out with a 'new' radio and we are fortunate to get this 'serious' upgrade as such!] So after I can do some test, I will make an audio recording and send it to you and Vidi. 73, Tom - W4BQF -----Original Message----- From: Elecraft [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Johnk1jd Sent: Saturday, February 28, 2015 9:20 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Elecraft] New K3 Syn Don, all, Discussed this upgrade with Vidi ZS1EL yesterday. Given the already excellent K3 RX, ours and presumably others' primary interest is improved QSK, including the new mode reported to reduce clicks/pops at the expense of a little slower QSK. Could someone with the upgrade installed create and make available an audio file of the receiver output while transmitting CW circa 30-40 WPM? Hearing what it actually sounds like will help with the decision to buy.
