Ahhh yes Mate,

The KX3's temperature stability is specified at +/- 1 ppm typical over
0-50 C. That's +/- 14 Hz on 20 meters. Normally the short-term
stability would be far greater than this. However, during long key-
down periods there is some heating of the RF board, which includes

I am trying to setup a serial connection between an Elecraft K3, CWSkimmer
and
N1MM using com0com/hub4com.
I don't get it working. Anyone on this forum who got this working properly?
Thanks Eric PE3V (ex PA3FKN)

foot tired holding it up to try to keep it from scooting away. Solved by
mounting it on a thin piece of paneling and then another piece of 3/4 inch
