David, Try reducing the Line Out level on the K3 to see if that makes a difference. At one time there was a recommendation that the Line Out level should not exceed 10 to minimize distortion. You may have to increase the LINE IN setting on your computer to compensate. 73, Don W3FPR On 8/6/2

[Elecraft] K3: Strong Signals in passband

2014-08-06 Thread David Cole
Hello, I have a few friends who live close by. When they operate, digital, and while the K3 is in DIGITAL A mode, I see what looks like random white noise across the audio passband of the K3 audio waterfall, (not on the P3 at all), when viewing with any digital program. I have been attempting to

The term "intended audience" might be easy to misinterpret, and I don't think that W5OV used it to try to make the K3 a "one-user-profile radio". However, I also do not believe that the K3 jumped to the top of the charts because it is versatile ... it got there because of it's superior perfor

While I fully support any activity that gets people on the air, I don't think the intended audience for the K3 is to be hand carried by someone hiking.For someone to mis-apply a high-performance DXing and Contesting machine like the K3 to such an activity should not be a concern of Elecraft. >
