Hello Jorge, Both kit and factory K3's always come with a 2.7 5 pole filter by default that is part of the price. You can REPLACE the 2.7 five pole with a 2.8 for an upgrade fee, but not DELETE it.
So if you ordered the K3 from Elecraft, when you order kits K3 and KRX3 and two 400 8 pole and two 1.8 8 pole, you will have FIVE (not four) filters when you finally install everything... one 2.7, two 1.8 and two 400. The 2.7 must go in a mainboard slot for transmitting. If you bought your K3 used, did it come without at least one 2.8 or 2.7 kHz filter? No K3 will work without one of those. There's no firmware setting to support the different offsets needed to support 1.8 as a transmitting filter. It has been discussed on the reflector, but I don't know if Wayne ever agreed to put it on the list. 73, Guy On Sat, Mar 6, 2010 at 7:12 PM, Jorge Diez - CX6VM <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks to all for the help.
