I have the 20Ah Bioenno battery and am very pleased with it. I did have some
issues with the company, but the way they resolved the issues makes me want to
recommend them. The first issue was, I wanted a light battery to power a 100W
radio, and first ordered a 15 Ah model, based on the website

Li-xxx batteries are not really supportive of float charging. It's real
common for LiFePO4 and LiPoly packs to have a charging connector
separate from the discharge leads to the radio, which the charger uses
to equalize the charge on each cell. I have 2 LiFePO4 4 Ah packs and a
charger that

I read on-line Amazon question on the battery asking about simultaneously
drawing from the battery while charger plugged in. The answer, from Bioenno
themselves, was that this should not be done. The charger and using the
battery should not be done simultaneously.

Hi Dave,
I have tried the ;; plus a bunch more.
I've asked Elecraft Support for some assistance.
My sense is that the P3 is left in some odd state by previous commands, and
doesn't respond to the initial commands, but to subsequent ones.
I'm going to try a P3 reset first,
Hi,
I tried this out as a Macro in Win4K3Suite and it works fine on the first
press.
By default, Win4K3 does not add any delay between each command when using
macros.
I think that this is a specific issue to DXlab.

Mike, The DExxx command only effects the K3 and does not have any impact on P3
actions. You might try a string of between the K3 section and P3 commands.

Thanks. I checked and I did not have the latest K3 programming manual which

Can not yet figure why the macro must be executed twice in order for the P3

Might run the K3 at 75 to 100 watts without the KPA500 and see if it
shuts down.
Those temperature numbers, are they the K3 or the KPA500? You might
lift the top of the K3 and remove the KPA3 100 watt amp and observe both
the male and female connectors. Look for any signs of heating or
Thank you for the suggestions.
I am using an Astron linear power supply rated at 35 Amps. I have had no
issues with it since purchasing it for the K-3 application.
I have not checked the KPA-100 amp module to see if connections are tight. I
also have not checked the cooling fan on the K-3;
Check INRAD on the Vibroplex web page. They have the adapter, very well
assembled at a very reasonable price.

Gary,
The adapter is the same as the one for Kenwood - Heil AD-1-K to use with
the Front Panel mic jack.
Or you can just plug the microphone and phones into the rear of the
K3/K3S - no adapter required.
You will need to turn bias on - that microphone has the same electret

A Koss SB45 ($25) is another option for an interim headset. I’ve heard good

I agree with John on this. Heil is good about warranty and quick

I suggest obtaining/buying a CM500 as a spare while the ProSet is away

Hello Igor, I have found that if the SWR creeps thdn the SPE 2KA transmits

Also it generates hash on both 6 and 10 which disimproves reception.
