Re: [Elecraft] KBPF3A switching frequencies and performance
Just an FYI, I found out what the problem is with my modified KBPF3. I removed the added caps and signal levels returned to somewhat normal levels. Adding a cap to C2 didn't make sense and attenuated the signals. But Fig. 14 shows adding a cap to C4. Apparently the ham I bought this from used Rev. A1, June 24, 2015 instructions which have an error. Figure 13 shows adding the 0.1uF caps to C2, C3 and C6. I downloaded Rev. A2 June 29, 2015 which correctly shows in fig. 13 to piggyback caps on C4, C3 and C6. Problem solved!

Re: [Elecraft] KBPF3A switching frequencies and performance
Thanks Ben, I didn't think of that. Now when the KBPF3 is not inst There is no difference in signal level when transitioning from 1.700 to 1.69. And when I set the KBPF3 to nor (and reboot) there is a definite drop of 5-7 S units at the 1.700 transition point and also at the the 2.11 to 2.10999 transition. So there is definitely something in the low band signal path that is attenuating the signal. I'll also do some checking at the other freqs. I guess it's time to drag out the scope for some signal tracing which should be fun with SMDs and my old eyes.

Re: [Elecraft] KBPF3A switching frequencies and performance
Brian,Thanks for your information which got me thinking again about my situation. I went back and set the config for the KBPF3 to "not inSt" and found no difference at the signal levels at the switchover at 1700 Kc. Toggling back and forth between "not inSt" and "nor" I verified that there is no change in signal levels. On the surface it appears that I purchased a broken used KBPF3. Now I really have to take things apart to figure out what's wrong. Russ, N3CO On Tuesday, April 20, 2021, 07:23:37 PM EDT, Brian Hunt wrote: This thread also got my curiosity up.

Re: [Elecraft] KBPF3A switching frequencies and performance
Russ, Unfortunately, it appears you may have a defective KBPF3A. (Modified KBPF3). I actually see a slight increase in band noise below 1.7MHz with my K3S-100, which has KBPF3A installed.

Re: [Elecraft] KBPF3A switching frequencies and performance
A little back ground,, The effort started as a result of my using WWV at 15.00 MHz for calibrating the reference oscillator. Tuning from 14.99 to 15.00 MHz I noticed a 9 to 12 Db drop in signal strength of WWV. I could hear relays’ switching at the 14.99 to 15.00 MHz boundary. This lead to making a list of (“suspected”) switching points by tuning from low 1MHz through 30MHz listening Looking at schematics of the KBPF3/A I heard switching at some points that did not make sense, with the 14.99 to 15.00 MHz boundary being one. It is not easy to probe the KBPF3A in my K3S-100 to check which relays are bein set/reset because of the installed KRX3A. I have a K3S-10, but will need to install a KBPF3/A to check the 14.99 to 15.00 MHz boundary and gather the information.

Re: [Elecraft] KBPF3A switching frequencies and performance
Hi Knut: I couldn't tell you if this is a new problem as I didn't notice anything amiss until I started checking switchover frequencies to answer W4SC's question. I verified that the KBPF3 is enabled in the config menu. I bought the used KBPF3 about 4-5 years ago from another ham and don't remember who it was. It came with the instructions to modify it to the "A" version. I can't remember if it was already modified or if I did it myself. I do know that I did install the 220uF capacitor on the main board of the K3. Arrrgh, I guess I'll have to tear everything apart to check if the mods were done correctly before proceeding. Thanks for your information. Russ, N3CO On Monday, April 19, 2021, 09:04:58 PM EDT, ab2tc wrote: Hi Russ, Your response made *very* curious so I checked out my own K3S.

Re: [Elecraft] KBPF3A switching frequencies and performance
Hi Ben: You had me curious with your request. I started to check my KBPF3 (modified to the "A") and noticed something that now bothers me.

When I switch to 1.69 the noise level drops to S2. At the high end the switchover occurs at 2109.999+ with a drop in the noise level from S9+10 to S3. I don't use the K3 for listening to AMBCB but only in the case of checking my 160M receiving loops with some stations high in the AM Band. I checked on 80M and got similar results. At the low side the switch occurred at 3299.999 with a drop in the noise level from S5 to S2. On the high side the switchover occurred at 4209.999+ but here the noise level increased from S4 to S6.

Re: [Elecraft] KBPF3A switching frequencies and performance
Hi Ben, Others with more knowledge may chime in, but here is what I know: The crossover frequencies you can find in the K3S schematic file. Here is a link to it: https://ftp.elecraft.com/K3S/Manuals%20Downloads/E740323%20K3s%20Schematic%20Files.pdf It is the first page in the "options" segment. You can search for "KBPF3A" to find it (the file is *big*). I have not been able to find any real specifications for it. The installation manual has no specs. I also don't know if either ARRL or Sherwood has collected any data outside of the regular ham bands. In principle the K3(S) equipped with this filter should have nearly identical sensitivity anywhere from 0.1 to 30MHz. Note: the KBPF3 version has L1 installed which limits the low end to 0.5MHz. If you have an unmodified early K3 and want to use it below 0.5MHz you need to add add a bypass capacitor as described in the installation manual. Without that the bottom end is very noisy from power supply noise. I know many people are fascinated by Non-Directional-Beacons (NDBs) which are generally in that low frequency range. I have it in my K3S and find plenty of sensitivity anywhere in the range supported (0.1-29.7MHz). I don't do much SWLing anymore since the number of English language SW transmitters have dwindled over the past 10 years. It's all Internet radio these days. Are you sure you have good antennas for the bands where you think sensitivity is low? I certainly have no problem using a 102' G5RV anywhere from 0.5 to 29.7MHz for reception. I leave the tuner in bypass.

[Elecraft] KBPF3A switching frequencies and performance
Looking for details of switch over frequencies and expected performance of the KBPF3A in its various bands, There is improvement in the BCB and below 500KHz with the KBPF3A enabled, however the other SW BCB bands I have tried are lacking. Has anyone measured the performance of the KBPF3A?
