Yes the frequency changes when turning the VFO knob when measuring with CAL
FCTR on TP1.

I am having trouble with the K2 VCO alignment. I have moved the T5 windings
and obtained 6 volts at the left end of R30. I then went on to the chart
(table 6-1) to measure the voltages at the listed frequencies. My readings
are ok on 80 40 and 15 meters (between 1.5 to 7.5 volts) but on 30,20,17
without going through 2 years worth of firmware updates and hand
writing them in my manual???

Sorry if this is a dumb question.
I went through the sideband null procedure from page 31 of my PX3
manual and everything went just as described.
My question is, was I making changes to the KX3 receiver or transmitter
or just changes to the PX3? In other words, does making the adjustments
on
and assembly went well. Now I
have to be patient for another week and a half for the KXV3A to
come all the way from CA. The best laid plans..

There is a complete K-line offered for sale on ebay, for a
ridiculously low price. I checked into it and it is a scam,
eBay removed the auction which was posted to try to get your money by bidding
or sending money directly to someone. It was a item too good to be true (or too
cheap to be true in this case). He never had a K line. These people place these
kind of false auctions trying to catch those less

FYI about a 700hz CW filter for the K3
I originally posted here looking for a used 700hz filter for my K3. Since then
plans have been made to have Inrad do a small run of these filters. If you think
you may be interested in getting one of these filters, you can get details at
www.unpcbs.com
I hope you get enough. 700hz is a nice filter for general CW.

I believe it is a fault of all DSP radios that they amplify the HARMONICS of a
sound too much. In our earlier days before DSP,
radio amplifiers tended to amplify only the fundamental of a sound and not the
partials (harmonics 2,3,4,5,6 etc.) Forgive me if this
doesn't seem clear. I am piano
Sounds good to me! What is the supplier and part number so I can order!
