Who was looking for a small PS for his KX3? Here is one from MPJ. 16 VDC at
3+ amps. You'll need a power cord and an adapter plug to fit the K's. Hard to
beat the price.

I got a PS for a Respirator from MPJ. A 12v 4.16 amp unit.
Runs the K2. and KX3
It's quite, RF wise. Take a look at their web site and you will see 16 volt
units available.

The close in coverage 630m offers, 24/7, is exactly why the interest among our

An Elecraft Transverter for below 510 kHz would be well received, world wide.
I guess the number of participants would be rather low to start with but
