Thanks for those notes, Geoff. It did cross my mind that I would probably
need some home to site link to avoid continuous transmission and switch
between the amplifier front end filters or complete amplifier/TRF. For a
start this would be an additional challenge for the battery supply and

My wife completely surprised me at Christmas by buying me a K3/100. I had asked
for donations toward the K3 fund on my Christmas list. Of course, it arrived
three days late.
I spent about six hours doing the assembly. Unfortunately, my two dummy loads
are 100 miles away, so I can't do the TX
This is as short as I can make it. When I first noticed the difference in the
K3 meter reading compared to my DVM, I wondered if I needed to calibrate
something, and I wondered if the K3 meter was linear. The answer is; no, and
can't tell.

Did you check the battery voltage? This sound rather like a problem I
experienced when on an adjustable PSU - I later found the voltage from the PSU
was low (although I haven't yet checked the K3 is still ok).

David,
Thanks for quick answer!
I operated using car battery. Voltage was about 12.3V and during
transmition sometimes decreased to 11.x. But in October I have been using
also 12V battery working a few hours from the beach and had no problem.
However thank you so much for your advise. I will check
Some clarity, that setup option is in the W2 application.

Changing from always on top and back makes no difference. I agree that it
must be something in the Acer display but I can't figure out what it could
be for the life of me.

Bill,
A VGA extension cable has several of the pins connected together (I
believe all the shields). Is that possibly the problem?
You can buy DE15HD cables that have all 15 pins routed end to end, but
that is not a VGA extension cable.

Hi Bill,
If you Google VGA plug wiring you'll see that not all pins are connected and
some are shorted together. That's probably the reason for it not working.
You probably need a DB15 straight through male to female extension cable,
not a male/female VGA cable. You can purchase 15 pin straight
Correction:
The 2nd link I sent you (Monoprice) is incorrect. It shows 15 pins arranged
in two rows. The first link (Windord) is correct, 15 pins in 3 rows.

I have my doubts about acetone being used in nail polish but it's possible
some manufacturers are using it to cheapen their products. It's a poor

I am in need of advice. I have the newer iPad 2 and am having no luck getting
it to work with the KX3 using the iSDR app. I am using the Griffin external
sound card and basically doing what the uTube video I Googled is doing but all
I am seeing is noise, no stations and the iPad has no control
You need more than the Griffin to get the iPad to control the radio.
You also need a computer to radio interface such as the PigTail from
Pignology.net which uses wireless networking to talk to the iPad.
I too had trouble with the Griffin but chalked it up to cheap cables I
bought from China
Dennis:
I have it working with only the following:
- Griffin iMic
- Apple Camera Connectivity Kit
- iPad 2
I can't remember exactly why but I ended up hacking together my own cable
from the Griffin to the PC. But it's still a simple stereo audio cable.
I have to admit I was very eager to get

Hello there, I might be able to help a little.
I assume that you have the KX3 analog I/Q outputs connected to the Griffin

then plugs into the iPad connector?

Howdy Folks,
Just a quick note on the comments from Buck. Pigtail works with HamLog to
allow an iOS or Android device to act as a CW/DATA terminal (along with all
the other stuff it does) with no waterfall. Pigtail/Pignology is not
associated with the iSDR application. I think it'd be pretty
The KX3 I/Q output has to be enabled via the KX3 menu before it will work. It's
also pretty low level, so make sure the iMic is set to mic level instead of
line level. The iSDR app will route the sound output to the iMic output jack,
so you will also need to connect headphones or a powered
We're all amateurs, RBN is a loose collection of amateurs all running

relatively,
It's been a while since I updated the firmware in the K3 so I did it last week
