Charlie, I ordered my KAT500 Kit on May 22 and it shipped December 11. 73, Mitch Charles Stampf wrote Does anyone know the current shipping status of the KAT500 kits? The web site status report hasn't changed in a few weeks. Sure would make a great Christmas gift to myself.

Ed, The KNB3 NB has to be enabled from the CONFIG menu. Just like you did for your KAT3 or KPA3 if you have those modules installed. 73, Mitch -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/No-IF-Noise-Blanker-tp7556479p7556497.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list

I only use one port and the single interface (USB to Serial) from N1MM generates the CW and PTT. You do not need any kind of built or external keying interface to key the K3. It's very simple and straight-forward. 73, Mitch Julius Fazekas n2wn wrote Tim, Winkeyer is a great piece

I just built #570 last week and was concerned with how 'wobbly' the bracket was with the 5/16 screws not wanting to over-tighten the screws. But knowing it should not be that wobbly, I gave a little more torque while pressing down and they all fully tightened down nicely. 73, Mitch -- View

Don, What's odd is that when I cam back into the shack after reading your email and turning the K3 back on, no hum!!! I turned the K3 on and off before reporting the issue but the hum was still there. Now it is gone - for now anyway. Well, I'll see if it returns. Thanks. -- View this

Hi Don, I just replied to you via email an answer along with a couple of other questions. Yes, I'm getting an adapter for the mic in order to use it on the K3 and continue using it on my FT-950. Thanks, Mitch -- View this message in context:
