[Elecraft] Low audio K3?

2014-03-11 Thread JBaumgarte
I have 2 K3's which I use in a contest station I have, use for remoting that station (35 miles from home), or the occasional mobile state qso party. I typically use Heil headsets, but picked up a Yamaha after hearing K9YC speak so glowingly about the unit. I have always noticed the low lev

Problem solved--old manual without the notation for bnd map of band controls. Sorry for band width, and thanks to W9RE and K9TM. John, N0IJ In a message dated 1/29/2013 21:57:19 Central Standard Time, jbaumga...@aol.com writes: I'm planning on running the Minnesota QSO party with one o

I'm planning on running the Minnesota QSO party with one of my K3s in the car. Would appreciate any and all QSO's--see W0AA.org for information on the contest--just Saturday, Feb 2, 8 a.m. CST to 6 p.m. CST. My question is that I can't figure out why, when I tap up band or down band

Bob, Phil and others, Wow, guess I should have done more studying. I am running the RRC boxes with my 2 K3's, but I have a PC based system and a couple of Green Heron Go Everywhere boxes to run everything else--two 4 Squares, Beverage switch, 2 rotor controllers, and a 6 pack. Obviously,

This is only if you feel the need to have PTT with the hand trigger. I stick with VOX and just plug everything in to the back connectors. Really neat and avoids the front clutter. K3 vox is great. Another option might be to use a foot switch. John, N0IJ In a message dated 3/21/201

[Elecraft] Heil Mic--settings

2011-03-04 Thread JBaumgarte
I was hoping someone using one of the Heil Headsets (the 4 element) would respond to this recent mic thread. As a contester, I use these on both my K3's and would be interested in the settings folks use. I've done quite a bit of CW with these great rigs, but not much SSB, so have never been

I recently purchased my 2nd K3 from a fellow near the factory and had it hand delivered to Elecraft for some hardware upgrades. I decided to have the sub RX removed by Elecraft and packaged as they would a new unit. It remains in an un-opened sealed package, and of course, it is, as Dale Fa

Wow! I'm new to Elecraft (K3) and this list, and only enough time to read 25 or so posting each day, which leaves me in the dust. I'm too busy setting up my M/2 station for this season and getting used to the K3 which will be on one side for the first time. But, I gotta ask, what in the h
