I have been trying to come up with a antenna for use in an apartment with
only limited success. I have now set up the Elecraft AX-1 antenna and it
seems to play well with my K3 indoors with the antenna placed in a window
supported by a folding camera tripod.
One caveat is that there seems to be

side of the Elecraft web site to test initial functionality, I loaded the
Beta code to enable the TX Monitor features. Everything went well ...

There has been a recent change to the KXV3B manual that describes a
different enabling procedure.
When I ordered my module around the time of Dayton, the manual shipped with
the unit was revision C with a May 27th date. The current manual online
shows a date of July 27th and a revision ID of C2.
I have installed the new KXV3B module - do I need to load the Beta firmware:
MCU 5.33 / DSP 2.86 / FPF 1.23, 8-3-2015
Or is the production firmware OK for this module
MCU 5.29 / DSP 2.83 / FPF 1.22, 6-16-2015

Looking at the software page for the P3, do we load the Beta 1.50 version
(July 29th 2015 dated) for the TXMON capability, or is there something else
in the works?
As a side note, I hope that Elecraft eventually gets pictures up on the web
site show casing the TX monitor function for the P3. In

When I was a volunteer at the Elecraft booth in Dayton, the question of
multiple sensors was raised a number of times. During one such discussion,
an individual from Elecraft seemed to indicate that if a switch was to be
built, each sensor in the chain needed to have continuous power.

As others have noted, removing the two screws on the rear of the left panel
makes the installation easier. Especially in order to attach the lock
washer and nut on the bottom corner of the KXV3B module with my XXL
fingers..
Now just waiting for the PTXMON parts that are due to arrive tomorrow so
When will the update to the P3 firmware to support the TX Monitor function
be available?

It is 1.2.11-1 and so considerably out of date vs the current version of

I'll wait a bit to see if a later version gets uploaded to Debian -

Post: mailto:Elecraft
plan to use the MFJ 4116 Bias injector to introduce 12 volts on the coax
leg that feeds the reversible Moxon (needed to run the relay that reverses the
antenna pattern)- will this create an issue with the K3
Any thoughts or experience is welcome
Thanks in advance
