Re: [Elecraft] KX3 battery upgrade?
Great idea, count me in! At first I thought “The new KXBC3a should be backward compatible to NiMH cells”. Then I realized “Who would want to go back”? Then for safety reasons make it impossible to “accidentally“ connect the LiFePo4 battery pack to a KXBC3.

Re: [Elecraft] KE7X, Fred Cady, silent key
Very sorry to hear! Years ago when I purchased my first Elecraft product, an early KX3, Fred’s companion book totally demystified it for me and it continues to be a valuable resource to this day. Thank you Fred.
