Re: [Elecraft] Wish List
I made an external switch box with a double pole-double throw switch. It seems to work well if you don't mind the extra cable clutter.

Re: [Elecraft] Wish List
I have thought of 3D printing a “manifold” that would have connectors that plugged into the side panel of the KX3 and allowed something similar for a quick disconnect. Frankly, however, this idea hasn’t gotten past the stars-in-the-eyes stage and also frankly it wasn’t that hard to use a wye cord for my MARS ops.

Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft Wish List
I concur with Don, I have a small kit building business (not Elecraft kits) and one of my kit suppliers provides the pcb half populated with sm components. The kit uses the same pcb for several different bands and changes components to fit the frequency and options chosen. My guess is the kit seller buys his boards with these select components pre-installed due to cost, efficiency and quality control issues. I suspect this has a lot to do with the K3 in the form it is offered. Customer service headaches is the other. It is very hard for someone to break into building ham radio products due to the economy of scale issue (little guy can't buy components as cheaply as a big outfit that orders in multiples of thousand quantities. I supply full testing results and a set up/operation manual and that is not as easy as it may seem. Days of kits assembled from military surplus parts (Heathkit) are long gone. If you are clever or the first one out the gate with a brand new concept (niche product), you have a chance (for a short time). 600m equipment for the pending new ham band has this potential (an already many players coming onto the field). 73, Ed - KL7UW --- Date: Thu, 22 Aug 2013 20:09:32 -0400 From: Don Wilhelm w3...@embarqmail.com To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft Wish List Message-ID: 5216a83c.5050...@embarqmail.com Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Bill, I sympathize with you, but the reality is that a large scale SMD kit would create a great number of customer support problems.

Sounds like the DZKit Sienna might be right up your alley, Bill.

Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft Wish List
The Sienna would be a neat full kit to build. Brian Wood W0DZ, a retired Agilent test equipment designer and engineer, has placed a lot of his blood, sweat, and tears into the Sienna. Another aspect of not offering the K3 and KX3 as full solder kits is the level of customer support required. Although Elecraft has wonderful and expedient customer service, a full kit K3 and KX3 may be more than they wish to address. 73 Don W9CW On 8/22/2013 8:35 PM, Mark Volstad wrote: Sounds like the DZKit Sienna might be right up your alley, Bill.

[Elecraft] Wish List for KAT500 (or whatever the tuner for the KPA500 will be)
1.Instant (or as fast as possible) tuning when QSY to a new band or new frequency the say way that the KPA500 does. 2. Tune while transmitting and not requiring key down to tune 3. While tuning, put the KPA500 into a reduced power mode if necessary but not key down 4. Have both balanced and unbalanced antenna input with the ability to specify (program) which input gets used per band but be able to manually select as well. 5. Automatically go into bypass mode if the SWR on the antenna without the tuner is within predetermined limits. Hope we get to see the tuner sooner rather than later - I'm getting tired of the antics of a different brand tuner that I currently have.

Re: [Elecraft] Wish List K3 remote front face kit
I know that the big box thread has been killed I was going to post my thoughts yesterday but did not The only thing the DMU in my subjective opinion was good for besides (pretty eye candy) was the menu being completely displayed in plain English, it does everything. but nothing well. Second I really miss the triple band stacking memory in a key pad numbers on the face of the radio sohere are my thoughts while I have gotten used to how the face of the radio does work. My subjective opinion I do not like to play Point and click computer control radio I want to operate the radio from the Radio not a computer, to have this option is nice however so. Wish list Front panel option A removable front panel for one that is much large ...to be determined by the (engineers who have done such a marvelous job with the ergonomics of the great radio) Remember the ts2000 computer radio face have a cable that connects to a new front end panel like some sorta of HDMI cable to the new remote face which could be adjusted to a 45 degree angle or what ever have the full size buttons band stacking registry big knobs single tap menu changes all the stuff one wish for to be determined by the engineers who design this stuff. I know that I have missed some feature to be engineered into this new remote face take a pole see what the customer base would support. This would be an option so the original size box is not out dated or made obsolete by then next better box. A one tap QMB Last I like lifting the small radio much better than my newly departed one owner 18 year old FT1000d small is good with a (remote) new bigger front face for the K3 would be all good. Things I love about Elecraft and the K3 The best company in Amateur Radio to deal with customer support The fact the owners and design team don't hide from the forum and take e-mails even complaints High performance in a small light package The fact you don't have to sell a 2 year old top end radio at 1/2 price then double the original cost to get the next latest hype this new radio chase is stupid as I see it I'm done playing the game. I have ground off the Yaesu tattoo on my chest I will probably never... purchase another new... Yaesu radio the FT2000 DMU U-tuning kit experience was a painful eye opening experience. YAESU LIED AND MY LOYALTY DIED no diversity receive, triple roof filters soft front end stuff that they covered up. Rushing new stuff to market before its ready to beat the competition. I know that new products are not easy to learn or adjust to a DVD that shows all the features with explanation of how this all works might be useful many learn much better with audio visual teaching than reading a manual.

With my station I never use the ATT function, just preamp on or off. The only other issue is the AB split button and A/B. It would be nice to have a second frequency tucked away for instant recall with one quick tap, not what is on VFO A or B. I think what people really miss is being able to tap the band buttons and have two frequencies stored in each band button like a Yaesu will do.

If the FN-X buttons are intended to be user programmable, it would be beneficial to be able to set custom labels for them that are displayed on the bottom edge of the display, instead of trying to remember what FN1 = ??. By looking at that grey silkscreened line across the bottom of the clear display cover, with arrows above each FN-X button pointing upwards toward the display, perhaps this is already a planned feature. 73 Eric NO3M Merv Schweigert wrote: Even double bandstacking would be a major step forward.

[Elecraft] Wish List - Lo cut and High cut - 50 Hz steps instead of 100
I have been working PSK recently and also Olivia. Many times somebody will come up almost on top of your QSO and positioning of the signals seems to mostly (of course) be where the 100 HZ step of low cut and hi cut will either leave the guy inside the cut with you or damage your signal where it is not readable. 50 hz step sure would help. Maybe there should be a region where it switches to 50 from 100 as the lo and hi approach each other so as to not make it tedious to get there? Just a thought as I try to eliminate interferrence. Might work good for CW also. Width and shift at 50 also? Probably not.

RE: [Elecraft] Wish List for K3 - Moot Point
OK guys. If you follow the thread ... the idea has been tossed about and tossed out ... and for good reason. They can't do it. Nope, cannot be done. The VOX icon is burned into the LCD, thus there is no way to change it. I did not understand the manufacturing process when I made the comment. I am not an engineer or a manufacturing process expert. So it is a moot point. Again, some of this is the learning curve of the radio, and once I learn the radio better, I will understand that when the VOX is not showing, I am in PTT. But, I reserve the right to suggest improvements that are part of my opinion. Sometimes on this list...dumb ideas are branded as dumb by guys who think they know all the answers. There are no dumb questions or dumb suggestions as the K3 evolves. Please, your opinion counts and so does mine...lets not minimize constructive (but maybe flawed) comments or ideas I felt this was something would enhance the rig...a small something. It just cannot be done. So, lets move on. Lee - K0WA In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply. If you don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it.

Re: [Elecraft] Wish List for K3
It's an LCD in that it's a liquid crystal display - that's the technology, but driving a pure LCD dot matrix display takes a lot more power, a lot more programming etc - it's not a TV screen. An awful lot of electronics these days does not have a completely programmable display, it has areas which 'light' up, but its a predefined pattern of crystals. It's also difficult (read expensive) to get good resolution in such small icons - look at the resolution of VFOB display to get an idea. On 10/03/2008 22:01, Lee Buller [EMAIL PROTECTED] sent: RATS!

RE: [Elecraft] Wish List for K3
I'm not an LCD expert, but some general-purpose LCDs are simply an array of dots and you can program them to show anything. But it looks like an array of dots. An example is the LCD on my Array Solutions Power Master http://www.arraysolutions.com/Products/powermaster.htm. Other LCDs have custom icons. The VFO A and B areas use seven-segments and a dot sort of construction that gives you numbers and most characters (and i sometimes lower case is used, because upper case D looks a lot like an O or a zero). So during DSP load it shows up as dSP, which looks amazingly close to d5P (d five p). Other areas like the S-Meter area appear to be custom icons. There isn't any programming to draw the scale of the S-meter. It's burned in to the glass. The programming can choose to illuminate it or leave it dark.

Re: [Elecraft] Wish List for K3
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 David and Dick got it right. It takes a lot of graphics processing power to make a general purpose LCD look good. If you've got an LCD monitor on your computer there is a point at which your current video card will not drive a larger monitor. I ran into this when I upgraded to a 22 wide screen LCD. The old,(2 years) video card wouldn't drive it to a decent resolution. The iconized LCD's take a lot less programming as the areas specifically setup are either on or off. You can't anticipate everything someone might like to see so it's a trade off. On my K2 the only way I know I'm using VOX is the flashing U or L icon. If it ain't flashing I know I'm running PTT mode.

Re: [Elecraft] wish list for K3/RTTY
What is this used to have a Model 15 stuff? That is still current technology in my shack. Well at least the marriage of past and relatively current technology. I have a Yaesu SP-5 speaker with the Timewave DSP 59Y in it. Also in the case are the power supplies to run it along with the circuitry to drive the Model 15 selector magnets. They had a very early serial port that required HV DC. So my question for the K3 Guru's is about this as I will keep the Model 15 running even if just for nostalgia.. Is the decoded Baudot available anywhere within the K3 or is all the real RTTY activity buried within the software? 73, Bob K2TK K2 owner Potential K3 owner Dave Martin wrote: I used to have a Model 15 sitting on a small WW2 U.S. Army wooden typewriter table.
