[Elecraft] KPA500 driven by KX3 ... what output to be expected ?
Hi all, I believe once the KX3 is shipping it would be interesting to use it with the KPA500. Given the rel. small size of the KPA500 and its built-in PSU, the total package may be even smaller then a KXPA100 + stand-alone PSU. Only question, is the KPA500 usable with 10W drive, and what will be the output of the KPA500 with that drive level (and what about its efficiency).

Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 driven by KX3 ... what output to be expected ?
KX3 would require power supply anyway. Another approach would be to have 13v power supply built in into KXPA100. Then this PS could be used for KX3 while operating from the base.

[Elecraft] Managing Multiple Keys/Paddles More Easily
Having struggled with cable changes to connectors on the back of radios for years, my solution, when I built my current ham shack, was to space my radio table out from the wall 2 feet to allow access behind the equipment. My radio cabinet is now three shelves above the table top. I bought some ordinary peg board (with all the holes) attached to behind the table to floor level and attach wiring runs with tywraps thru the holes. Photos: http://www.kl7uw.com/station%20layout.htm It is still a mess of cables but an accessible mess. In time I expect the configuration will reach some level of maturity so I can make the cable layout a little neater. One thing I would do if the room were larger is allow at least 3-feet space behind the radio table as it is a tight fit when I need to kneel down to make connections or test something. My wife tells me that she will build me a whole new ham shack attached to the garage if we ever win the lottery or other such windfall. Still I keep fit running between the workbench in the garage to the ham shack to the two towers outside. Having the ham shack adjacent to the workshop and direct outside entrance would save some shoe-leather! My wife would have the third bedroom for normal use and the noise would be gone! The question is whether the radios are the noise or am I?

Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 Cabling Qustion
Yes. If you connect a K3 to a KPA500 with the KPAK3AUX cable, and omit the interrupter that looks like a gender changer with a pin removed, you do not need a separate K3 to KPA500 key line. The required keying line is in the KPAK3AUX cable. 73 de Dick, K6KR -Original Message- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of David Inger In anticipation of receiving my KPA500 kit (July?), I had one question regarding cabling.

Re: [Elecraft] Managing Multiple Keys/Paddles More Easily
Ed, An approach which I have used for many years which keeps me sane (?) is to use a homebrewed box containing rotary switches to select which rig or which connector of a rig should be connected to the key (or which key), mic, phones, loudspeaker or whatever. IIRC the generic term for such a device is a 'breakout box', which I believe is usually associated with audio circuits. It can also be used to control coax relays to select which TX or RX is connected to an antenna's feeder, or which feeder if more than one leaves the shack, also control remote antenna selectors (coax relays). The possibilities are endless :-) I find that such a 'box' helps greatly when hopping between HF and UHF for example, and it removes the need to struggle with connectors. 73, Geoff GM4ESD On June 20, 2011 at 18:12 Z, Edward R.

[Elecraft] P3
I’m new on the reflector as of today. I searched for this and didn’t see anything that addresses my thought and I hope I’m not repeating something that has already been covered somewhere. If so, please let me know. To me it would be useful if the following capability were available to me: When I move a marker with the P3 knob and then tap it to tune the K3 frequency to my selection, I almost never hit the exact carrier frequency in SSB. I then have to move my hand over to the K3 VFO for fine tuning. It’s not a big deal but over and over in a contest this might become time consuming. If, after tapping the select knob on the P3 it would be useful to me if, for a few seconds, the knob were to become a direct K3 fine frequency tune control. I wouldn’t have to switch back and forth between the P3 K3 all the time. If the knob isn’t turned for a short time, say 5-seconds, it would revert to its normal operation of moving the marker only. Others’ thoughts on this would be welcome.

Re: [Elecraft] Backpacking a K1?
Hi John, The K1 has very low current drain (on the order of 50 mA on receive), which may allow you to use a small battery pack. The KBT1 internal battery is good for something like 7 watts output. There's also an internal ATU option (KAT1), which has decent range, so you can leave your coax at home and just toss a wire into a tree. The KX1 is a bit smaller, a bit lower in power output and ATU range, but has an attached keyer paddle option for really lightweight and convenient operation. 73, Wayne N6KR On Jun 20, 2011, at 1:05 PM, John Flynn wrote: Good Day All, Being new to the QRP universe, I was wondering how backpackable a K1 is and if anyone does it.

[Elecraft] K3 QSK - not so good?
OK, I'll put my head in the lion's mouth. I'm using qsk on cw and I find that if the rf gain is turned up to hear some background noise, there's a transient or click when the rig switches to rx (but not when it switches from rx to tx). To hear this really badly, try opening the cw b/w up to 2kHz and sending a stream of dots. The effect is there even at 400Hz, and it's rather off-putting. What am I doing wrong?

[Elecraft] KPA500 kit
Just to whet everyone's appetites further, here's a one week report on my new KPA500 (ser. 077, almost matches my K3, ser. 076), built as a Field Test kit. The assembly was very straightforward, easier than the K3. It was speeded up by the fact that the parts inventory was missing from the preliminary kit manual, so no time was spent checking for completeness -- I just kept building, waiting to see if anything crucial had been omitted (nothing was). There was a pre-production glitch with a ribbon cable, but that was quickly remedied by Bob Wolbert, K6XX, the project manager, and the finished kit works great. Although this may not bear management's approval, I gave it several hours of workout in the All Asian contest this weekend, running JA's at a steady 600 watts on my wattmeter. Nary a problem, and the temperature readout never went above 60 degrees C. (it's rated for 90 degrees C.). The integration with the K3 is delightful. The amp and radio follow each other's band changes, and the K3 remembers two power levels, the standby and operate levels, and switches automatically. The KPA500 also comes on when you turn on the K3 (provided the main power switch on the back of the amp is on), so it's just like having a more powerful radio. All in all, operation is really seamless with the K3. I imagine it would be almost as good with any other radio, as the amp, when not connected to the K3, switches bands with the first dit due to rf sampling. Anyway, I'm one happy camper with the KPA500, and wanted to share my experience. 73, andy ae6y __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html

My approach ash been to use an old audio patch-bay, you can pick these up pretty cheaply on ebay I wrote it up here http://ei6iz.com/?p=67 I have expanded the number of inputs in use a bit since and fills up the now vacant Icom 7800 sized hole in my my shack nicely..

My wife tells me that she will build me a whole new ham shack attached to the garage if we ever win the lottery or other such windfall. Still I keep fit running between the workbench in the garage to the ham shack to the two towers outside. Having the ham shack adjacent to the workshop and direct outside entrance would save some shoe-leather! My wife would have the third bedroom for normal use and the noise would be gone!

[Elecraft] Suggestions for 10 MHz Signal Source for the K3?
Hi Everyone, I am considering a K3EXREF just for fun, no other reason. Looking for suggestions for a reasonably priced 10 MHz external signal source. Can anyone offer some suggestions? GPSDO? OCXO?

Re: [Elecraft] K3 - 5553 Is on the air..!!
Well, congratulations. If you already owned a K3 I assume the new radio provided very few surprises. I also own two K3s but I am embarrassed to admit that both were factory assembled. I don't know why since I managed to build a K2/100 with most of the accessories without any problem. I am even more embarrassed to admit that I haven't even peeked under the hood of either radio and I really should do that. I have heard a rumor that they are driven by hamsters pedaling madly on wheels but I guess I can only dispel that by looking inside. Who knows. If I do that I may find that feeding them will even increase the performance further. Perhaps we will meet one day on the air but after this message I suspect if you hear my call sign you will probably just change bands!

[Elecraft] KPA500 Kit Build
I was another beta builder, and I did the deed on Saturday, in between a bunch of honeydoos and a dinner in a restaurant. I can confirm Ed's comments about an easy assembly from a well written manual. Found a few typos, but everything went smoothly, and I got a tour of the inside of the amp. Very nice piece, well built. I took about four hours to do it, including making notes of the typos. Others might do it a lot faster. :) Only complaint is that Elecraft STILL doesn't understand the Pin One problem. The RCA connectors for ALC and PTT float from the chassis. AARGH.
