Yes, I've had the same problem, after I tune , I get low power out indicated
Gordan,
e72x,
I updated the firmware to 3.04 last night. Today, after I tune, I get no or low
power out indicated on the RF meter in SSB. Keying down momentarily restores
power in SSB.
Are others
We'll have a new beta release, probably tomorrow, that should correct
all of the observed issues with power control. About 70 K3 owners are
field-testing it.

When I purchased by K3, I also got the KUSB kit as well. Worked great for
quite awhile but then developed some issues. I think the issues were due to
RF. Of course, I have an amplifier and I use it (AL82). I have all the
standard grounds in the shack, tuners, and all that kind of stuff.
I used a 4-port Edgeport when using my PC and running the AL-1500. Did not

70ft or more from the shack.
I don't use the Edgeport any longer since they don't have a MAC driver. I have

Thanks for the info Dick. I had never paid attention to the fact that it was a

But I will put a plug into for it as nice piece of software in that you can
edit MP3s in a number of
ways and also (to a degree) speed them up or slow them down while keeping pitch
constant.

Try using Sound Recorder if you're running Windoze on the PC.

Mike,
Make sure the line out from the K3 is plugged into the line input of your sound
card. On most computers, red is the mic input, green is line output and blue is
line input. Or if they have stencils by them, the one with and ear and arrow
pointing in.
Click on programs, then accessories,
While Audacity certainly is a good choice for recording and editing
sound files, if you want something even more versatile for recording
(not editing), take a look at Total Recorder from www.highcriteria.com.
It will record anything that you can send through the sound card.

Not exactly on message Mike but don't forget the handy feature of being able to
record what you hear in your phones by taking the output from the Line-Out
socket. Go to the LINE OUT menu entry and tap 1 to get =PHONES and adjust the
recording level with the AF control. It's very useful for

Eterlogic can work as long as the two programs don't poll much, reducing the
chance of collisions. It takes all incoming data and mixes it together, which
can cause lost or corrupted commands. It also sends all K3 responses to all
connected programs, which can be a problem with some programs,
Is there a way to connect a long wire to a BL-2?
I vaguely remember seeing a post re: this kind of setup used as a way to get
a wider range of matches without using a longer wire antenna.
My rig is a KX1 and where I am going to be backpacking makes it impractical
to use a balanced line
I'll be vacationing in NC this summer at a nice cottage in the mountains.
Taking my K3, what is the best portable antenna to take with me for that
week. There are many and I'm sure there are some strong opinions. Thanks

Why not connect the wire directly to the KX-1 output? The KXAT1 will
handle a pretty wide range of load impedances.

You know, a dipole is pretty good antenna if you have trees. And if you have
some building skills, you could make it so you could add on wire to make a 80
40 30 and 20 meter dipole. Also, if you want to spend some dollars I like the
Force 12 XK40 antennas for 40 through 10 meteres.

If you want to play antenna and try different configurations on different
bands, the BuddiPole system is fun and flexible.
If you want to put something up and forget about it, get one or more of the
PAR end-feds for the bands of your choice.
Of course a regular dipole will also work quite
Phil, I have had very good luck with a combination inverted vee with a 80 meter
and 40 meter dipole antennas fed with one coax. If you can get a pulley up in
a tree 35 to 45 feet up and pull the center up with that. It does not work
too well on 20, but you could add an insulators in the 80
I agree with Bob. The KX1 does very well with nothing in between it and an
end fed wire.
The most important thing is to have an RF ground at the rig - especially
when using a wire that's 1/4 wavelength or less long as we often must do
when travelling light.

Hello Walter:
Having lived with (and without) solder stations for both Ham and
professional use for several decades, I've yet to see any value in
calibrating them for service and the sort of assembly work we do.
The value in the temperature control is that it maintains a constant tip

Walter,
I use a Hakko 936 constantly, and have never calibrated it with any
degree of precision. I 'calibrate' it whenever I solder.
I watch the solder flow. If it can adequately heat the solder pad and
make solder flow in a 2 to 3 second window, the temperature is right.

A new revision of firmware is in field test that provides squelch in
