A little advice from a Yank. Check with Elecraft. There may be free gold
replacement pins for your K3.

Dear UK K3 owners,
This email is a request for some help in troubleshooting my recently acquired
K3. It is an early model Ser No 104 and has been hardly used. I suspect I am
suffering from front panel to RF board pin corrosion problems since K3 utility
fails to connect and comes up with the
I’m not sure why I didn’t think of this before. How about the MS-3 from
BlackBox? It has one DTE port and three DCE ports on it (or is it the other way
around?). BlackBox also makes a larger box with eight ports but I’m not sure if
it’s an “MS-8” or they call it something different.
We use
And that is why it will not work with multiple computer applications -
they run independently and 'talk' whenever they want to.
LP-Bridge solves that problem by buffering the individual requests. Plus
it also buffers some K3 information so it can respond to some of the
application requests
If your hearing loss is age-related, try a lower frequency, like 400-500 Hz.
Age-related hearing loss usually is in the 1000-3000 KHz range. If it's
occupational-related, it could be any frequency.
I recall an article in QST a number of years ago by N4GG about building a
small equalizer. As I

Digital modes normally use only the left channel, although there are
some applications that allow you to switch it to the right.
The K3 Line In and Line Out jacks are stereo type, but there is no
connection to the ring contact, and the audio will only appear on the

Phil,
I had a hearing test done, and asked for the resultant data showing
frequency vs sensitivity...
I selected a spot where my ear was most sensitive in the 400 to 700 Hz
range, and then set the K3 zero beat to that frequency...
CW is a LOT better now! I had placed the zero beat at my

Right. K6DGW has severe hearing loss. I advised him to set RXEQ for max

perfect, but good

Thanks to those that offered suggestions but due to operator error I was

Strange one. Trying to make audio in and out connections with my Mac Mini and
my KX3 Line for use with cocoaModem and FLDigi. Mac Mini “sees the Mic, and
responds to the RX I/Q stream from the PX3. BUT, when I connect the iMic to the
KX3 MIC port, it sends the KX3 into a scan frequency mode.

It wouldn't be hard to add an option to change the color of the VFO A

By the way, I also have typical male red-green color blindness but I

I think I'm the first to use and mention in this forum the CM500. I have some

The K3 has a built-in receive equalizer so I don't see a need for an external
