Re: [Elecraft] Observation on new Synthesizers for K3
The solution is becoming clear. We all need to buy our near neighbours shiny new K3S's. Costly maybe but what price for some RF sanity.

Less so if I'm working a higher higher band which I assume is due to cut-off of the TX BPFs in both the transceiver and the linear. The transceiver in question is an FTDX5000.

Re: [Elecraft] OT: Last post on time subject
General-Date Time-Set Automatically needs to be on but I have 2 iPhones an iPad and a MacBook Pro laptop all agreeing on the time. The two iPhones are on different carriers as well.

Re: [Elecraft] Can I measure Antenna Impedance
Wouldn't that be cool! An antenna analyser function using say the K3 with the P3 for display. My guess is most of the necessary hardware might already be in place :) Martin, HS0ZED On 01/08/2014 04:41, Jan wrote: Most interesting discussion ~ and my comment ~ I bought an Elecrfat K2 in 1999 but also a Kachina 505DSP (a software controlled transceiver) The Kachina has a subroutine ~ when activated, it displays a Smith Chart of the current conditions of the match, in a separate display window --- always thought that was rather a nice feature --- Maybe some newer Elecraft transceiver might include this feature in the next decade?

Re: [Elecraft] David Cole...756ProIII vs K3
If you can remember to remember, hah! Then the K3 has a sort of quad band stack register. You can program the M1 to M4 keys with a set of different frequencies and recall them to get to whichever band segment you want. They are not true band stack in the sense of remembering where a recalled band stack register was last left they only remember their programmed frequencies but it can aid jumping around a band. They also remember mode and I think other settings. What's more they are band sensitive so you can have a set of four band memories in M1 to M4 for each band. Now with programming the keypad as a band change switch using MVFO you can almost implement single key band change and stack switch. Okay so it's 2 keys for a band change and 2 other keys for a stack switch, but better than nothing, sometimes. 73 Martin, HS0ZED, A7???

But, there really is no comparison when it comes to performance. I thought the Pro 2 was a cool radio, but I think my K3 is a fantastic radio. I do miss the triple band-stacking registers on the Icom though. That is really one of the few things that Elecraft missed the mark on with the K3. Maybe they'll introduce a new front panel that will allow for a few more features... Obviously, it wasn't a deal breaker for me, and I don't miss the DSP artifacts, but band stacking would be nice. 73, Scott, N9AA On 4/13/14 9:33 PM, David Cole wrote: That is what I wanted to hear, I bought teh K3 because of the filters...
