[Elecraft] K3/100 for sale

2017-12-23 Thread Buck
I am thinking about upgrading to a K3S for no particular reason since the K3 is as close to perfect as one could want. I wonder what the interest might be in my K3/100. It is a prestige serial number 101, ordered sight unseen the day the rig was announced. It was back to the mother ship in

What changes were made to FW Version 1.54 for the KPA500?  The notes only go to version 1.52.  Or is this just a typo causing the utility to show it as 1.54 when it is actually 1.52? MIke - KI0HA __ Elecraft mailing list Home:

Hello all, It's been years since I did any serious kit building, and I've been looking for a good winter project for a while now. So, when I found an unbuilt K2, KPA100, and KAT100-1 as part of an estate sale, I jumped on it. Are there any potential pitfalls I should be aware of, or is there

Phil, First of all, do you need or want it? I have chosen not to add it to my K3 because I have plenty of RS-232 ports, and I have a good USB soundcard already. Note that I use a desktop computer at the home station - it sits on a shelf on the back of my custom made operating table, and I

My K3/100, S/N 4385, is at Elecraft for repairs. Since it is at Elecraft and will be at least partly disassembled, is it worth considering the addition of the KIO3B, while it’s being worked on? I already have the upgraded synthesizer and have added the KRX3A, also with the upgraded synthesizer.

For me a software-defined receiver is one where the demodulators and filters are implemented (defined) in software. Adding a synchronous AM detector is 100% software. We already have precise terms for receiver architectures: superhet, direct conversion, and TRF (no conversion). Direct sampling

Don, I'm not sure there IS an accepted definition of a "Full SDR" radio, but it's just a matter of semantics, anyway.  I just wanted to point out that the KX2 and KX3 use local oscillators and mixers to convert the RF to the IF, like any superhet.  From there, it's pure SDR.  (Perhaps aside
