Hi Jim, Waffle style non-adhesive shelf liner works well for this application. Cut it out over the speaker or just use two narrow strips. One strip for the front feet of the P3 and the other strip for the rear feet. Here's a link with a nice illustration:

Good Morning, I am considering a P3 to go along with my K3. I would like to sit the P3 on top of my K3 but not sure whether or not that would be a good idea. I see there are ventilation vents on top of the K3 and not sure how critical those vents are to the total operation of the K3. I really

I've been running my P3 on top of the K3 for a few years now with no ill effects. 73, matt W6NIA On Thu, 11 Apr 2013 07:03:52 -0500 (CDT), you wrote: Good Morning, I am considering a P3 to go along with my K3. I would like to sit the P3 on top of my K3 but not sure whether or not that would be

The left side of the top of the K3 is clear, about the size of the P3. 73, Mike NF4L On Apr 11, 2013, at 8:03 AM, pastor...@verizon.net wrote: Good Morning, I am considering a P3 to go along with my K3. I would like to sit the P3 on top of my K3 but not sure whether or not that would be a

Hi Mark, If you look at my QRZ page you'll see the P3 centered on top of the K3. That's an old photo. I've since added the SVGA option and relegated the P3 to the left side of the K3. While I had the P3 on top there were absolutely no heat problems. I used some rubbery black shelf liner (the kind

The P3 talks to the K3 using a special private command set to prevent confusion with standard commands sent by application programs. However the functions are similar, so it should be easier to add the K2 command set than it would be to add a radio from another manufacturer. Alan N1AL On Thu,

It would be fine if the P3 could provide a configurable K2 emulation mode to communicate with the K2 and to support an appropriate (sub-)set of the exciting P3 functions in conjunction with the K2. Any pros and cons? 73, Heinz HB9BCB

Right now I'm up to my ears with P3 bug fixes and implementing promised features. But when things quiet down a little I definitely want to modify my K2 to add IF output and work on implementing the K2 command set in the P3. It won't be as closely integrated as the K3 but it should at least

Given the similarities between the K2 and K3 command sets, one should not need more than the Clifton Research Z-10 buffer to bring out the K2 IF and select the proper IF frequency in the P3. The radio data rate would need to be changed to 4800 bps (only rate supported by the KIO2) and the
