enough, there was one in September 2009 that addressed noise heard on

Guys - thanks for the replies!
By now you've probably read my post that I got it all working. As to having the
SLUSB, after reading the K3 and KE7X manuals, it just seems that using the
external sound card like the SLUSB makes it a little easier. Haven't looked at
the iMic, but with the SLUSB,

That has been true up to this year. But I believe that the latest iMac has

Jim, Just make sure when adjusting the power your ALC reading on the
K3 must show 4 bars of ALC with the 5th bar just flashing. This is
counter intuitive based on other rigs but a necessity for the K3. If
you are using the line in gain or the TX control on the SLUSB to
regulate power you may be

Seems like there is some confusion between iMics and iMacs on this thread :-)
At any rate since you are already using the SL no need for an iMic at this time.
BTW, lately my configuration for RTTY and PSK 31 has been to use Rumlog. It
uses the internal FSK function of the K3 and when

I notice the KPA500 has two serial ports (in/out). Is it permissible to add
it to the K3/P3 chain or will that cause issues. So far the K3/P3 serial
chain works fine when loading K3 firmware.

Looks like I misspoke when I said I could leave the K3's PWR set at 90 and
adjust the RF output via the SLUSB. Doesn't quite work that way! RF power out
stays up in the stratosphere (PSK31 speaking, anyway) so I really do have to
set the K3 to about 25-30 watts out on the K3 and adjust the ALC
Hi Fred,
Sorry to hear about the bad experience on that transaction. I have had one
like that as well. Same kind of deal as yours.
Not all items on ebay are bad - the majority are legitimate and as

No, the out port is for use with Kenwood rigs so the KPA can read freq

Hi Jim,
No, the KPA500 can not be daisy chained with the K3/P3 serial connection
via these RS-232 ports.
The KPA500 serial ports are totally independent functions and are -not-
daisy chain In/Out ports. One connects directly to your PC for firmware
downloads and control via KPA500 utility.
Jim, from the Owner's manual on page 7:
Optional: RS232 (XVCR) {8} connects the KPA500 to a Kenwood transceiver
using a standard 9-pin
serial cable. This connector cannot be used to update KPA500 firmware (see
pg 14)

Jim,
Due to the way the K3 controls power, you must ignore the many instances
in Data software instructions and other sites on the web which tell you
to set the power for maximum and use the audio level to control the power.
That just will not work for the K3 (or the K2 for that matter).

Very funny. But no one answered my question regarding memory editor. I put it
the VFO A frequencies and offsets and tones for the repeaters for the trip from
Westlake village to Mammoth but was wondering if I need to put in a frequency
for VFO B or does the offset automatically take care of
The other issue with the SLUSB audio level setting is that if you use a
program like DM780 to watch PSK (several conversations at once) then click
on one to use, the actual tones used will change. The audio drive at 1KHz
will be different than if you select 1.8KHz so the ALC response may (likely

I got them both and updated with no problems. The problem with not being

G'day,
Not having a circuit I thought I'd just ask this one .
Do I have to worry about reversing the supply polarity on the KX3 ?
The knowledge will help me to decide whether to fit connectors to the power
cable and battery etc for long term portable use or whether I can get away

No. There's a reverse-polarity protection diode.
