Hello Elecrafters,
As you may be aware from my past postings in this mail reflector, I am not a

I have the KRX3 installed in my K3 with antenna connected to Aux

input from extreme RF levels.

Hi Hoop,
At present, there is no way to get a human readable print out of the K3
configuration using the K3 Utility. The configuration files created by the
K3 Utility are intended to be used only by the K3 Utility
Win 7 64 bit can load almost any 32 bit software i tried. He has a backward
compatibility mode that you can try if the software doesn't run at first try.
You will find 32 bit programs in c:\program files x86 directory.

YES, and more - the equivalent keystroke (Cmd+shift+4) takes a screen shot and
places on the desktop (cmd+ctrl+shift+4 puts it on the clipboard) - what you do
with it then is up to you - print with built-in 'Preview' app that is much more
than windows media, save it to disk/cloud etc., mail it
This feature would be really handy, not only for those lucky ones who
can have more than one K3, but also for situation like hey, I messed
around the configs and can't remember what I changed, let's compare with
backup.

The PSK31 and RTTY text decoded by the K3 appears without any structure ON

You are going to like using the sub receiver. It makes finding the right
place in the pileup to call SOOO much easier.
If you are not that much interested in diversity reception just go ahead
and connect the sub receiver ant to the ATU. That will give you the most

I love my Sony MDR-7506 headphones. They are comfortable and not tight
on the head (but are over-the-ear headphones, not earbuds), but the
cushions provide a good seal between your listening and the outside
noise. They're also great for listening to music.
Good idea! Using the K3_EZ program, simply PRINT SCREEN and PASTE into
your favorite drawing program - crop to suit and PRINT. It doesn't get
much easier than that.
Thanks for the tip.

I have both the MDR-7506 headphones and the SB-40 with boom mic.
I found the SB-40 easier to listen to than my 7506 which have too much hf.

Dear Kevin,
If these are in-the-ear earbuds, please be careful. Some malfunction in the
radio leading to a very loud sound could wreck your ears before you could get
them out / off. I never use in-ear earbuds with electronic equipment other
than well-behaved iPhone type things.

I use my Apple iPhone ear buds and they work just fine for me. I much prefer
them to the plethora of other headphone devices out there. Now, if Elecraft
could support the mic input of those earbuds that would be cool.

radio use my all time favorite headset is the Senneheiser HD 280 PRO 64-ohm.

I installed it to use the ATU for aux, and I put the BNC in if I ever want to

Mike,
The KRX3 should have the same overall gain as the K3's main receiver.
Try going into BSET Mode to see if the preamp is turned on on the sub
receiver. You can also adjust other sub-RX settings in BSET mode,
including NB, NR, and filter bandwidth, all of which can affect gain.
