The easiest way to tell is that the new board has a little daughter-board with
low-pass
filter components on it. If both boards have them, you are already updated. If
neither,
then they sent you an old board. If one does and the other doesn't, install the
one that does!

Holger,
The DSP Upgrade is certainly possible for your K3 - whether that is a
board exchange or the LPF which you add to the board.
The question about price and shipping should be directed to
sa...@elecraft.com for a complete answer.

Holger,
If you do the DSP board exchange, you do not have to be concerned about
the level of your current board - you will receive the latest level DSP
board in the exchange..
I believe the LPF can be added to any DSP board level.
For other upgrades, consult the list at the Elecraft website to

Hi Mike,
If you have an appreciation for the elimination of high end artifacts and
overall smother sound, the answer is clearly, 'Yes, it is worth it.' Prior
to the upgrade, I kept the top edge of the filter about 2.35 kHz as that was
about all I could take. Now I have no problem running the
I use my system with Line with Speaker Out - should read, 'I use my system
with Speaker out through a matching network to line in on my computer sound

used to cut speaker level down to line level.

You just spent $20 on something that you could have done equally well
with two 5-cent resistors, AND that probably was not needed
Jim and all,
Some just have not gotten it. The K3 is soundcard digital ready.
Just connect the computer Line in to the K3 rear panel Line Out, and the

I just completed the DSP upgrade board swap. I would just like to say that its

The first impression that you get is that the receiver sounds calm and quite.
The harshness and sharp sound has mostly gone. The receiver does

Hi Terry.
No new menu settings need to be made or changed as a result of the DSP
upgrade or the IF buffer mod. Just make sure you that if you have the subRX

also always a good idea to have the latest version of the K3
I was one of the early complainers about all kind of artifacts in the
