I found that the Elecraft K3 cable I ordered and received from uHAM-USA has a nasty little error. It appears that the labels and wire colors for AF in/out are not correct.
The orange cable, labeled 'AF IN' has on stereo 3mm plug and an 3mm female outbraker for the sub RX. The yellow cable is labeled 'AF OUT' and has just one 3mm stereo plug. According to the the cable schematics (http://www.microham.com/Downloads/DB37-EL-K3.pdf) the color and label are consistent which each other - except for the fact that the female sub-RX outbreaker should be attached to AF-out. Fortunately it appears by checking with an ohm-meter that electrically everything is OK when the orange cable + outbreaker is re-labeled as 'AF OUT' (tip of stereo plug goes to DB37 pin 19) and the the yellow cable as 'AF IN'. Maybe this is an isolated batch issue, but better check ... -- Enno, PF5X _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
