Hi Wayne, Can the new / current KX3 heatsink be swapped / added to an early KX3?

I’d suggest you try it as-is before investing in a third-party heat sink. I use RTTY at full power on my KX3 with just the new stock heat sink and have never had an issue. 73, Wayne N6KR > On Aug 4, 2017, at 2:08 PM, [email protected] wrote: > > Hi Jim, > > I recently purchased my KX3 and intend on doing a lot of digital modes.

I was going to work mine first to see how hot it gets before making a move if the newer heatsink is acceptable. I can't find any reviews of it. > > I will definitely be watching this thread to figure out if I too want to purchase the 3rd party Pro Audio Engineering KX32 Ultimate Heatsink as a replacement. > > Regards, > David ~ K1SZO ______________________________________________________________ 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]
