Any issues adding this option to a K2/100 set up in the ‘twins’ configuration?
( KPA100 and KAT100 in separate EC2)
Thanks

I had mine done last year. The K3 cannot be fully upgraded to a K3s, and
what all 'can' be done depends on such things as: Do you already have the
new synthesizer board or boards, depending on having the sub receiver or
not. And, are there options that you do not want.
Perusing the
I agree. Figure 2 in the SP3 manual has it backwards. The Elecraft K3 and
SP3 both follow the standard convention for a TRS or "stereo" connector:
Tip = Left
Ring = Right (an alliteration that's easy to remember)
Furthermore, when using TRS-to-RCA patch cables:
White = Left
Red = Right
I just received a new pair of SP3 speakers and began their installation
last night. I built a new custom cable to feed the speakers from the
outputs of my stereo amplifier using the pinout data supplied in the SP3
manual. I also verified that the pinout shown pictorially (in two places

If I send my K3 w/ new synthesizer into Elecraft for the full K3(s)
upgrade, what will such an upgrade include and what will be the
approximate cost. Thanks.

I have been using the SignaLink external sound card with my K3S for FT8. I am
running Windows 10 and controlling the radio and PTT with Ham Radio Deluxe. It
worked well that way. However, a couple of days ago there was a thread on
using the internal sound card, and I decided to try it.

I think Reading band/Mode can be done on mains but using radio to control the
radio is different.

To the fine folks at Elecraft; I have received my K3 (newly upgraded &
repaired) and all is well in the W5SV shack; thanks so much for your
competent help!

A. You must operate all transmitting and receiving equipment from
emergency power. If you use a computer for digital modes, and/or

We operated in class 10A.
Participating clubs were

I have one because my Pigknob does not work when I'm running remote. My
#1 reason for the KPOD is to get my arm supported by my desk to relieve
strain on an ancient shoulder injury. Pigknob worked equally well for
that. KPOD has a rocker switch that switches the knob between VFO-A,

How would this apply as we had the radio's on generator power?

Sure works great that way with my K3S and KPA500.

It's automatic Bill if you're using a K3 or K3S and KPA1500 with the
KPAK3AUX cable between the two ... and if you have selected "power per band" in
the config menu when you switch between OPER and STBY on the amp the K3
(K3S) will automatically switch output power between your
Phil,
You really need powered speakers on the KX3, or a very sensitive speaker
- like the one used in the K2, housed in an enclosure.
Keep in mind that for the K2 speaker, the K2 enclosure itself provides a
good cavity - the speaker sounds weak until it is mounted on the K2.

In the CONFIG setting on K3 go to PWR SET and set it to PEr bAnd. Then
make sure you adjust your power level on the K3 with the KPA1500 in STBY
and then adjust again with the KPA1500 in OPER. Do this for each band,
then the K3 will automatically switch power levels based on the status

You can run a computer, air-conditioner and

This would be correct if the computer was not attached to the rig. Many people
use CAT control which makes logging so much easier,
Only the transmitter has to be on battery power. You can run a
computer, air-conditioner and television on a generator or even mains
power.

Don, What command do you use for the KPA1500 power switching. Call me lazy
for asking. I use my KPOD for band changes, mode changes and tuning, fine,
coarse etc. Oh, I also use for Diversity, plus a switch to normalize
operation, for when I screw up.

For several years I've been using my K2 to have a QRP station at our club's
FD (Rochester MN - K0Z). They used to run kilowatts, but have settled on
100 watts, and aren't willing to use less. So, the QRP station is
administratively a separate FD entry (W0LLN), it receives the x5
multiplier, and I
Love the Kpod. Even though I was very comfy with the RIT even with the tiny
knob, I got very used to it. But during a contest it required reaching across
the keyboardand taking my right hand away from the keyboard. The Kpod sits
right next to the number pad. I only ever use it for RIT, not
I was happy with my K3S setup but once Elecraft announced this product I
had to try one. I found that having a RIT control right by my keyboard to
be very handy for contesting. I was never big into custom radio
programming but I found these buttons easy to program and quite useful. I

Hi,
thanks both guys for hints...
I fact I though that it should be more comfortable to implement it easily
into the next f/w revision of K3/K3S... :)

Friends, I use the Kpod to easily access memory and voice keyer messages.
The K3 panel is too tight to reliably hit the right button each time and it it
is a reach forcing me to keep my arm raised. Also find it handy to tune the
K3 as it is again an easier reach. I am grateful that
