G’day.
While setting my KX3 (K3 was sold few years ago), I was looking for the way to
adjust pitch of TRRY tones.
Looks like it is fixed at 915 - and no adjustment is possible.
Am I correct ?

Thanks Don and Joel, who both suggested bad solder joints. I touched up
all the LCD and U1 solder joints on the Front Panel and the problem was
resolved!

The meter itself can be off too. Using more slugs does help things,
but to be really sure, test equipment needs to be periodically
calibrated, which Hams never do. Dummy loads should be measured with a
VNA. So, what you did is a big help, but still can't provide 100%
assurance that it is accurate.
My K2 (S/N 7867) which I built has always had an intermittent problem with
the bottom horizontal row of LCD elements. Often they are missing until I
slap the top of the radio. Then they will come back on for a while. I'd
like a more permanent solution. Looking for some ideas as to where to
I was wondering if one can use the RTL SDR blog sma v3 sdr dongle with sdr
console with the k3. Is it ok to connect to the if output and set the if
frequency to it? I have seen people are using the sdr play but I wondered if it
will work with the RTL SDR as a pan adapter. I have also seen that

I have used an RTL-SDR with a K3 on its IF out and it works for me. The
RTL-SDR will need to direct sample at that frequency.
It is an inexpensive device and, while a remarkable amount of functionality
for about $25, it will have its limitations.
My use case is specifically as contesting

I think you will find that the socket pins of Front Panel U1 are not

I know this has been asked before but I don't remember the answer. Isn't the
P3 supposed to remember the span and center frequency from band to band? It
seems to change center frequency even if the band hasn't changed, but that may
not be the case.

When I received my KPA-1500, I noticed I had to drive the LEDS into the
"red" zone to indicate 1500 Watts into my Bird 43 wattmeter with a 2500W
slug, and Palstar DL2K dummy load.
There also was a comprehensive part of the KPA-1500 manual that details how
to readjust the power indicating LED's,
Good Evening,
Twenty meters had a moderate level of noise with some QSB. Signals
did drop to S2 or lower but copy was OK. Forty meters had less noise at
first, but by the end it grew louder. There were a few digital contacts
going on nearby. Twenty moved on me, arriving at the East
Funny how things move around: back in 1914-15 they could do 300wpm on spark
transmitters and regularly worked 200wpm with 15kW stations up and down the
west coast USA. It wasn't said as such but we know it as FSK. Machine to
