It is very true that - in a contest situation - we aren’t often concerned with measuring signal levels. No argument.
And, if contesting, DXing and rag chewing are all you use your K3 / K4 for, then I understand why you aren’t interested in the additional bells & whistles that are being discussed here. But many of us use the K3 / K4 for other purposes also. Even with the current implementation in the K3 / K3S, the dbm referenced signal measurement capability is extremely useful. My K3 was invaluable when I had an electronics lab as a very sensitive and selective calibrated RF voltmeter. Used it constantly both for design and for troubleshooting during many construction projects. I think the kinds of enhancements being discussed here will be a valuable addition to the K4 and encourage additional discussion. 73 Craig AC0DS ______________________________________________________________ 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]
