Some of the old one eighth inch plugs out of the 60s will not make contact in
the newer jacks. These are the two conductor type. So I think that years ago a
1/8 plug was really a 1/8 plug.

The website (www.arlancommunications.com) recommends the electret mic,

If anyone is using the Radiosport headset I would appreciate any info on
which mic element you are using
I have used my K1 for years without a problem. Some time ago the keyer
started sending a few random dits and dahs in the middle of a QSO for no
obvious reason. I let it sit for a few days while I thought about that
and when I tried it again it worked normally. Now it has a new problem.

Did you inadvertently change the menu INP parameter to HND?
If that is OK. try reseating the firmware to clean off any possible
oxidation on the leads and socket.
Still did not fix it? Re-solder R19, R20 and RP5.

HND it was. I don't know how that could have happened, but it did. I
forgot about that menu option because I never use it.
Thanks for the speedy reply! It's nice to know that there are gurus
like you out there watching out for us.

That is my recollection as well. The standard was 1/8 for a long time,
originally as a mono connector, until many personal electronics products
manufactured outside of the USA started showing up with 3.5mm plugs jacks.
Had they wanted to adopt the existing standard but use metric naming, it

returns on a different ban, then it will be there on the original band when

Agreed, Jim. I am constantly amazed at the money people will spend for
top end mics that perform no better with the K3 than the cheapest
electret computer mic. And some of those mics (cough*Heil*cough) have
worse durability than ANY $15 dollar computer headset I have ever
owned. I have

The last sentence also needs to be updated. Permitted emissions are now
USB, CW, and RTTY, however the FCC's bandwidth limitation on RTTY
really means PSK31 and other narrow band digital modes, not 170 Hz 45.5

But bearing mind this applies to the USA. As the K3 is marketed worldwide,
maybe all other countries' allocations should be included too.

Not true ... if 2K80J2D is permitted *any* J2D mode (including 45.45

I think I stand corrected. When it was first discussed by ARRL, I got
the impression that any digital mode was confined to PSK-ish bandwidths.
Looking up the current FCC regs, 2K80J2D is permitted, so 45.5 baud

Why can't you use your K2/100 mobile, Harlan, that needs you to downgrade to a

Yes, I'm glad I did it. There was no question I

But 2 deg-C? Did you run a test that low in temp?
I think mine went to 17 deg-C when it came out of
