[Elecraft] Trying to gauge interest

2016-07-12 Thread Ken Arck
Hello fellow K3 owners! I still have some boards available if anyone is interested and I'm happy to report they work just fine with the KPA3 installed as well! As my main use for my K3s is 6 meter and 144 EME operation, I bought the 10 watt version without the antenna tuner. I dabble a

If you look at the schematics of the KATU, you'll see the chain of shift registers on the KATU actually sends a signal back to the RF board. So the CPU sends the command to the KATU and if the ATU doesn't respond (via the MISO3 line), the CPU interprets that to mean the KATU isn't present As

Hi, Is there any reason why this should not work with a K3/100 also? BTW, how do you convince the firmware that an ATU is installed? When I press "ANT" on my ATU-less K3/100 I get the message "NO ATU". If both these concerns can be put away, count me in, too. I have always been bummed that I

Hello fellow 10 watt K3 owners! As my main use for my K3s is 6 meter and 144 EME operation, I bought the 10 watt version without the antenna tuner. I dabble a little on HF but not a whole lot. As such, the 10 watt, no tuner version suits my needs, although I thought it would be nice to be
