Re: [Elecraft] VFO drift KX3
My KX3 also drifts as well, I mostly use it on digital modes. Can’t remember when I bought it but it was over 3 years ago. 73 de Jose Douglas KB1TCD Sent from my iPad > On Mar 19, 2020, at 12:31 AM, Eddy Avila wrote: > > Lately, I've noticed my 3-year-old KX3 drifts a small amount, according to > the readout, in CW mode.

Re: [Elecraft] VFO drift KX3
Hello Ed, Lately, I've noticed my 3-year-old KX3 drifts a small amount, according to the readout, in CW mode. For instance, if I set rig on 7.033.00 hit the key and look at the readout it will say 7.033.010 and sometimes bounces back to 7.033.00 I don't remember this being a problem before. Is this normal for the KX3 or is there something I should look into? I suspect it is the VFO button itself. If it is too loose, a tuning step can be generated one way or the other. 73/72 de Ingo, DK3RED - Don't forget: the fun is the power! www.qrp4fun.de - dk3...@qrp4fun.de __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
[Elecraft] VFO drift KX3
Lately, I've noticed my 3-year-old KX3 drifts a small amount, according to the readout, in CW mode. For instance, if I set rig on 7.033.00 hit the key and look at the readout it will say 7.033.010 and sometimes bounces back to 7.033.00 I don't remember this being a problem before. Is this normal for the KX3 or is there something I should look into?
