Fellow Elecrafters, I remember reading a comparison by I think K3NA on the differences between 5 pole and 8 pole filters that eventually lead me to stick with the 5 pole filters. Does anybody know what I'm thinking of, because Google searches, and Nabble searches of the Elecraft archives aren't

Re: [Elecraft] Samelex Power Supplies with a K3

I have one I bought a few months ago to go with my new K3. Works great. I do not notice any hash, and the fan noise hasn't bothered me yet (but then again I'm usually running 2 rigs, 2 power supplies and 2 amps, all at the same time. The PS fan is NOT the loudest thing in my shack by any means.

Hello, I'm working on wiring up a band decoder to the ACC port on the back of the K3. I'm seeing 3V when a BCD pin is active. The rig is SN 4094. The manual says that older rigs may need a pull up resistor. I wouldn't have thought that a brand new out of the warehouse rig would have been an

[Elecraft] Save Dual PB as filter preset or custom norm setting?

I'd like to utilize a narrow/wide filter pair for RTTY. However I want the narrow filter to be a dual passband filter. Is there a way to store a dual pb filter as a filter preset or a custom norm filter setting? Even better would be a single button push (instead of a push turn) where holding

[Elecraft] K3 Ground Loop Issues using Ameritron ARB-704

I've just gotten my K3 built and integrated into the shack about a week ago. Operated WPX CW this weekend with GREAT success. Was very happy. Tonight in setting up FSK, I was getting a lot of AGN? after my cq's. Listening to my signal on a 2nd receiver, I realized that my signal had a hum on it
