[Elecraft] KX3 clock will not set from KX3 utility

OK, folks, I’ll admit to this being a “dummy load” error. However, I have searched the archives and can’t find a satisfactory answer. I have a KX3, SN 70xx. I installed the internal battery option more than a year ago, however, I moved across country in July and haven’t connected the KX3 up to

[Elecraft] OT: 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 power outlets

Sorry for the OT post … but I am thinking of using one of my Elecraft rigs in the truck … mobile applications. Does anyone know the amp rating of the two 12v power outlets in the Silverado 1500 for 2017? And, if you do know, is it switched (with the ignition) or always on? Thanks in

[Elecraft] Power adapter for KX1

Ladies and Gents: I am thinking about getting a KX1 kit for a mini-DXpedition to Bonaire (PJ4) early next year. I think that and an Array Solutions PS-12R1A wall wart power supply plus an EndFedZ 40/20 antenna should be a nice little package that will easily fit in a backpack. That power

[Elecraft] Alignment and Test, Part 1 ... K1 2-band

I’m building a K1 for a fellow ham whose hands won’t allow the fine soldering work that this kit demands. This is the second K1 that I have built. All of the test points before alignment and test, part 1 have been nominal. I have successfully completed the tests on the LED and LCD/Error Codes

[Elecraft] Expecting a delivery ... but didn't happen

Folks, I have a problem. I volunteered to build a K1 for a gentleman who’s hands are just too trembly to do it himself. I’ve been tracking the order from CA to my home QTH. It was supposed to arrive last night. UPS generally doesn’t visit me until late in the evening, certainly after 6PM most

[Elecraft] KPQ100 bias adjustment

I'm moving on to the final alignment of my KAT100-2/KPA100 in an EC2 enclosure … split from a stock K2 … So far, so good. Some of the testing and alignment steps are confusing since the construction assumes one wants to build the KPA100 in the K2 body. And, since I did not put a speaker into
