Thanks, Dave.
I've had many responses to this request. Excellent response from a community
that not only wants to help kids, they also want more CW ops on the air :)

Hi Tom,
I apologize for any confusion on K4 status. We really appreciate the support
you and others have given us with your K4 orders.

You could use most of the circuitry of the SMK-1 40m QRP rig to do exactly what
you describe Wayne (leave off the PA!). The SMK-1 has Full break-in, no clicks
or chirps, and a half-decent receiver in it. Feel free to use the design as you
see fit.

I just found an unbuilt K1 on eBay! It seems all the components are there
except the band board is missing in this kit... I am wondering if anyone has a
spare KFL1-2 or KFL-4 board that you would like to sell. I am also looking for
the internal ATU for the K1. Please contact me by my email
Y'all wanna talk Super LP CW with a kit builder, contact Floyd Hoskins,
N5FH. He's seen, fixed, built, et al. many different designs.

I've made changes to fan speed handling and would like to ask for some
fan-speed fussy volunteers to check out a pending firmware change. If
you're willing to test, please send me a note.
Here are the change notes since 2.27:

1) Wouldn't it be better to use one of the ISM bands? Then licensing is not
a problem. I'd feel uncomfortable giving radios that operate in the ham
bands to people without a license. There are bands 6.765-6.795MHz,
13.553-13.567MHz, and 26.957-27.283 close to our 40, 20, and 12/10 meter
bands, and
One of many K4 features we're putting the finishing touches on is the dual
panadapter display, which will make its debut at Pacificon. Please stop by our
booth this weekend if you get a chance.

Hi Bill,
Elecraft's web site does a remarkably poor job marketing the
significantly improved performance of the P3SVGA compared
to the basic P3.
The P3SVGA is NOT simply an SVGA monitor adapter, its a
much higher performance FFT processor and SVGA adapter.

My XYL and I are going from Amsterdam to Hungary on a Viking River cruise.
When I first asked for permission I was told: no because Hungary doesn’t allow
it! After a few emails with the Hungarian “Media and Communication Authority”
where I gently explained that their country was a signatory
I suspect that might be a function of the monitor.
Why put a small image of the P3 on a big monitor. Just look at the small P3
image itself.

I have a P3 with the SVGA option installed.
Is it possible to display the frequency spectrum in a window rather than
using the entire monitor?

Kinda sad that Elecraft has failed to let those of us who plunked down $4K back
in May know anything about K4 status.

Back when Halted Specialties Company (HSC) was in business in the SF Bay
Area I bought a PIXIE2e kit from them for $14.95. It is a crystal
controlled direct conversion transceiver using only a 2N oscillator
and LM386 audio amp on a 1" x 2" PCB. It came with crystals for 80m and
40m. RF

Hi all,
Someone recently told me that he'd benefitted throughout his life from learning
Morse code as a teen. Ham radio helped him cope. He's gone on to promote Morse
because it can help kids with certain cognitive or social issues. Such problems

I checked this another way by using the radio debug window in Logger32.
It polls the radio and displays the set frequency. This can also be
checked using the K3 Utility by entering FA; into the command test window.
Changing the resolution of the K3 step size only changed the reported
In case you haven’t dropped by the K4 part of the Elecraft website recently, it

Elecraft KRX3A second receiver for sale. It was factory installed in my
K3s in Jul 2019, so is relatively new. Three roofing filters: 13k,
2.8k(!), and 400 Hz. I will remove any filters you don't want and adjust
the price accordingly. Includes newer KSYB3A Synthesizer. $850,
including USPS
Thanks for all the comments? Really great information. I always wondered
why Elecraft didn't include a fused power lead with their radios.. I have
the KX3... Maybe their desktop radios do come with a fused power lead...

Bob,
An alternative solution is to set VFO CRS to what you want (it is per
mode). Also set VFO OFS to ON.
Now you can use the RIT/XIT knob for coarse excursions across the band
while leaving VFO A set to FINE. Of course, if you turn RIT/XIT on, you
will lose that capability until you turn

Bill - hunh. I didn’t think of testing it that way, but clearly that works and
tells the tale. Kind of off-putting, knowing that you’re really up to 99 Hz
away from where you think you are when you select Coarse. Maybe a good use for
a macro.

The undisplayed digits are used, i.e. the freq does not shift to the displayed
100Hz. In my example the freq (while listening to a CW QSO) did not shift but
stayed at 7.02647 Khz.

But, the question is - are the undisplayed digits retained but not used, or are
they actually utilized in determining the frequency? I’ve been setting my
readout to .x00 before switching to Coarse, on the fea that the undisplayed
digits actually are used in determining the Rx/Tx frequency,
Sri, when selecting coarse to 7.0264 not 7.02644. Fat fingers

I just tested it. It looks like the undisplayed digits are retained. My example

When the K3s is in Coarse tuning mode, showing 100 Hz steps, are the 10 Hz
and 1 Hz settings retained from wherever they were, or are they jammed to
0's? In other words, if the dial reads 7010.1, is the K3s running on the
frequency 7010.100 or possibly 7010.1?? where the ?? are whatever happened

You might want to consider this when you plan your next cruise. There are some
cruise lines that permit ham radio when approved ahead of time. I have read
many blog posts about the fun that can be had.
Each cruise line has their own private island and a few years ago while lying

Interesting response. I do agree (same XYL for the last 46 years). When I got
back in to ham radio I also took on a wife at the same time. I built an HW 7
“to have by the bed side to listen to code and get my speed up”. My fellow
club members had a riot with that comment. so the HW 7
