Except for putting in the 100w amp, I’ve finally completed the kit. Whew! It was harder than I thought. I’m 72 and my fingers no longer have the dexterity they once had. But I got it done! The hardest part: Installing the KREF3 board (page 48). I dang near had a heart attack! Hi hi. Thanks for

[Elecraft] K3 : Unstable output power in DATA A mode

2014-01-30 Thread Keith Onishi
Output power of my K3/100, SN 79xx, without KAT3 is very unstable in DATA A mode. The symptom is; 1. With setting 100W output on 14MHz and 10MHz, I get 100W output for a couple of seconds, then suddenly the output goes down to 10W or so. 2. On 7MHz and below, the output power never go up to

Keith, Have you adjusted your audio input to produce 4 bars solid on the ALC meter with the 5th bar flashing? If not, please do so - you can do that with the K3 in TX TEST mode so no signal is transmitted. After you set the audio level correctly, then adjust the power knob to the desired

then using the K3 in DATA A mode this often is caused by incorrect audio levels the k3's audio level should show 4 bars with the 5th bar flickering I have run my K3 with the 5th bar solid and it still worked ok the power out level is set by the K3's PWR knob most other rigs have a different

Bill, Regarding T4, there is one other possibility that I did not mention before. If the direction of the windings is not as shown in the manual, it will work backwards which may be what you are observing. As for the minimum voltage of 1.4 volts, that is WAY too high. The bridge should

Could we all remember to put the Elecraft product ID in the subject of our messages? A lot of us filter on those. I don't have an Elecraft wattmeter, and I doubt I ever will so a W2 helps me get rid of those. More importantly, a subject of Lost Sidetone strongly suggests K2, but could be a

A friend on another list came up with the idea of an all-mode transceiver for 2m and above. It would be especially nice to see coverage of 1.25m, and possibly 70cm, 33 cm and 23 cm. If such support for 1.25m, especially, is forthcoming, it looks like an American manufacturer would be the best
