[Elecraft] Improved KX3 Stand for 2014

Hi Elecrafters By popular request we have upgraded our hugely popular KX3 stand. It now shows your callsign in yellow paint-filled engraving. It has taken us a while to get this technique perfect but we think that we have it cracked now! VK3JY's stand is shown here:

Sorry Ariel, Hit the wrong button...Should of course have sent it to the list instead of you. I tried NaP3 but I'm afarid I am too much a HDSDR type so I get stuck on using PowerSDR and it's derivatives. I tried NaP3 with my simple SoftRock mixer on 30 meters and found that indeed it

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 IQ using NaP3

OK, so I installed NaP3 as I said before. Now I got my KX3 hooked up, set the rig control to KX3, connected the I/Q output cable to the Creative Xfi soundcard on my laptop, set the com port to the same as found with the KX3 util (com3 4800 baud) and it worked out of the box I must confess

[Elecraft] KXPA100- AT - can the antenna tuner be activate without the amp?

Does anyone know if the auto tuner in the KXPAT00-AT can be used without making the amp output. My idea is that I want to use the KX3 low power usually and only kick in the 100 watt amp when needed. I do have the auto tuner in the KX3 but I am foreseeing some issues (mostly operator) with two

[Elecraft] HC5 element change

Some years back, someone gave me an older Heil Proset with the HC5 element. It needed some serious maintenance, but after exchanging the cable and adding new earmuffs, it's now up to par. I also have a newer Proset that has the HC4 element. This is the one I have been using. Both can be

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 IQ using NaP3

Tried it Bob: Spike still there. No difference with the previous version. I already had it at -110 dBm so not really an issue but using the I/Q cable supplied remains disastrous, you need the galvanic separation. I could create the overload warning in 2.6 but the software kept running. NaP3

Re: [Elecraft] KXPA100- AT - can the antenna tuner be activate without the amp?

Merry Christmas, Mike! Yes. The behavior you're asking for is the current KX3/KXPA100 implementation when you enable KX3 PA MODE. The KX3's power knob then ranges from 0 to around 100 watts. The KXPA100 power amplifier is bypassed at power levels that the KX3 alone can provide, using the

Re: [Elecraft] How to get a K3/100 to emulate a K3/0?

Barry, Just press the menu button until term appears. Then it is in terminal mode and can control another K3. You can use a null modem cable or the RemoteRig setup. 73, Mitch DJ0QN On 24.12.2013 18:11, Mike Reublin wrote: Barry, Is this what you're looking for?

Re: [Elecraft] [KX3] Morse Practice

Hi Dick, Thanks, that works a treat. I wonder if it's worth considering a firmware update to make the KX3 better for standalone Morse practice without the terminal program. I think all that's required is either a program or fixed delay before the VFO B display switches from decode to freq.

David, Assuming you already have serial control of your rotor, then I can suggest two ways to control remotely without using a PC at the radio side: 1) If you are not using the RRC's COM1, you can use that to control the rotor as well. This passes the serial port over the internet 2) If
