I prefer to use the KDVR for CQ calls and contesting etc. More natural audio
is transmitted than my laptop recordings sound using N1MM...Just my 2 cents
worth...keep the change...(:-))

Eric,
Yep, future generations will most likely blame us for not trying harder.
Although I am obviously not in the US now, I have spent some 15 years living
and working in the US (had my own business for 7 years) and I am very
impressed with Elecraft products.
The amazing thing about Elecraft is
Andy,
If tapping the Footswitch (PTT) stops transmitting of the DVR in SSB...I
don't see why it should be any different for CW either.
I think I would have difficulty in learning to use software (keyboard
keys) to stop transmitting.
Although I don't like to use VOX as I tend to mess up too
Brett,
I guess it's a fancy PC but then what was the 94 cents for...(:-))

Hi,
Well I have shot myself and managed to put the PWR, MIC controls into

If somebody can take pity on me and remind me how to do unlock the K3 I

I used to think I had superior intellect after I got my K3...now it seems
they are multiplying at an ever increasing rate in my area...ya think I
educated the masses too well?

Nate,
Whilst the K3 may not be the 'Holy Grail', I have owned enough different HF
transceivers to know it is the closest yet to achieving that goal.
It does take time to learn the capabilities of any excellent quality
transceiver and the K3 is no exception, but over time you do learn how to

You are not alone.
My sentiments exactly.

Interesting advertising by MLS
Would have thought that even MLS would have recognised by now that when you
want to promote a product you get more buyer response when the advertising
is of a positive nature.
If they feel that to sell their new product they have to use a negative
advert, then
The suggestion that K3 owners should consider placing their K3 on e-bay is
not necessary.
Perhaps they might have considered that many HAMs own more than one radio
and more emphasis could have been placed on adding the new Kenwood to
their station rather than implying that K3 owners sell their K3
Hmmm,
Still like to know just what the ratio of units sold vs units requiring
return for repair.
Not likely to see those figures I suppose but it would perhaps throw some
light on the reliability of the radios.
These figures would need to have the operator caused repairs shown as
separate

Guess I missed the point completely.
Apologies to all

Ok guys...now calm down!
I shouldn't have said anything.
The K3's audio is just fine and there's plenty of it.
I was just comparing it to the
