The new to me KPA1500 seems to be behaving nicely, so time to make some room in
the equipment closet.

modification. 15-20 watts in for full output.
KAT500 Tuner. Completely stock, works as designed.
All units working
Look at the two diodes in the SWR/watt meter circuit. These two diode are
critical to the operation of the K3. These are the foundation of the K3s
ALC implementation. Ive had to replace them.

Do you have the soundcard properly identified to the MMTTY and 2Tone

Eric,
Thank you for the update. I did find that I needed to reduce transceiver
output from where I had it set ~26 W to 21 W to keep within legal output.
Other wise no issues. I do use BYP for tuner as I have a remote tuner.

FT'er for K2, KX1, KX3, KXPA100, KAT500, W2,
Use the connection on the back of the KXPA100 to the PC with the cable you
received with the KX3.

Brian,
With the KX3 and KXPA100, you should be using the optional KX3 to
KXPA100 Adapter Cable (KXPACBL) connected as shown on page 14 of the
KXPA100 manual.
You will then connect the KXUSB cable to the KXPA100 RS232 jack to
communicate with either the KX3 or the KXPA100.
In other words,
I think pages 12 and 13 of the KXPA100 manual are pretty clear. That shows a
cable from the KXPA100 to the PC at jack labeled “RS232 (PC)”.
This is the explanation from page 13.

transceiver and the
KXPA100 amplifier take
I am interested in running a KXPA100 with my KX3... but there is something I
cannot figure out.
IF I am using my KX3 currently with a compter (to use NaP3) I am running the
COMM/serial cable from ACC1 to a USB port, as well as the RX I/Q cable to a USB
port... right?
>From my reading of the
Trying to get RTTY running on my KX2, but no luck, so far.
The KX2 is setup for WSJTx and works properly (TX and RX) with both
straight audio cables to the computer and through a SignaLink USB. My
conclusion from this is that the audio connections and audio gains must
be set relatively close.
Sabrent USB 2.0 to Serial (9-Pin)...

I can give you a scenario that may make it easier to understand; this
presumes you have the sub rx installed.
The DX is staying on one TX frequency, put that in the VFO A, leave it
alone. Have your TX set to split on VFO B. Go into split RX so you can
hear both; using the VFO B to listen
Mike,
Certainly, put the frequency you want to listen to into VFO A (unless it
is already there), and then drop out of SPLIT. Either a one or two

Is there an easy way when listening split say 7205 and 7065 (7205 in one ear
and 7065 in the other) and then put 2 ears on one frequency or the other

For sale Elecraft K3S Transceiver. I am in the process of downsizing due to
my age and wish to sell my spare K3S. It resides in Canada and would appeal
to a VE as Canadian tax has been paid. Also I have shipped many items to the
USA and world wide. Shipping is with the original Elecraft box.

In this discussion about ALC, I have to inject a bit of fact.
The Elecraft transceivers K2/K3/K3S/KX2/KX3 use a power control system
that is different from all other amateur transceivers, and unless there
is a problem with the transceiver, there is no power overshoot. In
fact, after a band
What happens when the rig is connected to a dummy load?

I must have lost my KUSB cable to connect my KPA 500 to a computer for
