Did the mod last week. I have the KRX3 and I feel that it was not in the way at all. Nor did I have a problem with the cables.
The most uneasy part was getting the screws and washers in. The way that worked for me was: connect the cable(s) to the KSYN3-board; take 2 crews and inside tooth washers, put the screws (with the washers over it) in the holes of the Ksyn3 board; place the board in the socket but do not press it down entirely, so that you can pull it back towards the KRX3 a tiny bit; place the splitwashers over the screw-end (now between the KSYNS3 board and the K3 chassis)using a small nose pliers . Take a small philips screw driver, place it on one screw, place a thumb on the other screw and press the board in place. Then fasten the screws. Worked three out of four times :-) 73, Arie PA3A -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- > It seems a poor choice to try installing that resistor with > the Syn board in place when it's "hammer simple" to pull the > board and work on it properly. The "Elecraft procedure" is easier written than done (I've fought with (and lost) the lockwashers more times that I care to). Running the cables and getting the KRX3 in place is also not the most simple/intuitive operation. It's certainly not a five minute job for me even though I've pulled and installed KRX3 several times between my two rigs. ______________________________________________________________ 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
