[Elecraft] K3/K3S Options and Upgrades

[Elecraft] K3S settings for Heil HM-10 XD microphone

Thanks to all who responded to my query. I have since connected the HM-10 XD to the K3S and have found that the following settings work well for both the HC4X and HC5X cartridges. MC FP H, mic menu setting, and Mic gain 30. I continue to use the same transmit EQ settings as I used for the the

[Elecraft] K3S settings for Heil HM-10 XD microphone

I recently purchased subject mic and will be connecting it to the K3S shortly. Before I do that, I was wondering what mic settings to use? I currently have a Heil PR-10 mic and am using the MIC FP HI menu setting and a mic gain of 20; the PR-10 works fine, but I wanted to get a mic that I could

[Elecraft] KPA1500 Enhancement

Hi to all: I'm changing the topic back to my original question, which has not been answered. Are there plans or thoughts to add a second RF input to the amp similar to the two RF inputs on the Yaesu VL1000? I'm not interested in SO2R, I am interested in feeding my K3 and K3S into a KPA1500,

Re: [Elecraft] K3S and Heil PR10

Hi to all: I apologize for the late response. I am using a K3S and Heil PR10 here and had the same problem as was noted in the original post. I have found that the PR10 will only work correctly using the HP input in the Mic settings. I use a mic gain setting of 12. I posted a note on this

[Elecraft] K3S Band data 1 connection to the Yaesu VL1000 query

Hi to all: This subject has been posted before and I found the answer on the Elecraft historical threads web page. In any event I tried the recommended solution but have not been able to get the K3S to key the VL1000. Specifically, I’m using a Band data one cable put together by Array

[Elecraft] K3S Mic Gain and Heil PR-10 Query

Hi to All: I’m using a PR-10 mic to drive the K3S; I find that I need to set the mic gain to 40+ to get sufficient output to push the ALC meter to nearly the top of its range. My XYL, W1JX, with a softer voice, needs to run the mic gain to the maximum setting (60) to achieve the same output.

[Elecraft] Multiple rig control and logging using a single Macbook Pro

Hi to all: I posted the following on the MacloggerDX site and got a partial response, so thought I would try here also. I have been using a Macbook Pro running the El Captan operating system and the MacloggerDX program for rig control and logging of a K3 for several years now and all is
