[Elecraft] [K3][K2][K1] Legacy Update, Tuneup, Rescue, Build Services

2022-01-05 Thread Alan D. Wilcox

  "W3DVX Rescues Legacy Elecrafts"

Hello,

Now doing K3 updating mods to legacy K3's. See list of updates you might 
want at

https://elecraft.com/pages/mods-notes-alerts  (Click on "Retired Products")

K3 calibration and configuration is also available.

Does your K1 or K2 need repair? Tuneup?
Want to sell, but it needs some attention before offering it for sale?
In addition to tuning your rig, I can also rescue a building project you 
might have started some time ago.


See what my clients have said about my construction and service work at 
http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/6768
Photos of the popular "Twins" -- the KPA100 and KAT100 in EC2 enclosure 
-- are at

Cheers,
Alan

Probably better to use 50' of barbed wire and just under 100 miles of air.  ;)
