LP-PAN Larry has this on a to-do list for some time now. He thinks he can
get LP Bridge to remedy the problem.

Help:
Because of my antenna setup, I would like to use the 2nd receiver IF out
instead of the main receiver's IF out. I found a 2007 reflector comment by
Lyle that we need to 'choose' one receiver or the other. That's what I want
to do. I do not care to follow the FAQ answer that needs another board and
Gee, mom, why didn't you insist that I try diversity reception sooner?
After reading a review here, I ordered and installed a Pixel RF PRO-1A
active loop antenna
I bought one also... business must be picking up at Pixel.
The loop is everything I could have wanted, works superb, hangs from
and the bottom line reading is very
unstable - the power jumps randomly from 18W to 48W, so is the reading of
wattmeter - it is also unstable. The returned power stays pretty low though.
The meter bars on K3 also unstable. The SWR shows one bar and it is blinking
fast. The RF is jumping randomly.
I hate to expose my ignorance, but don't use alcohol. I've ordered a new
bezel already.
I was using it to clean the knobs and faceplate and some soaked behind the
bezel and left a white crusty look that will not remove.

My receive antenna for the 2nd receiver is a floor to ceiling wire I have
stuck to an indoor wall corner and tuned for the band of operation with a
small MFJ tuner.
Many times it pulls in signals better than my main outside long wire.Those
times when it isn't better but still receives the
It seems to me the K3 receive could use more punch on 10M. I had fun on 10M
CW last weekend during the contest and it reminded me that I used to use a
CB set to check for skip on 11 meters, thus probably an opening on 10M.
That got me to listen on 27MHz with the K3 and the receive sounded low
I agree with N6MQL, after working with 3.27 awhile now, 3.25 made CW better.
I only have the 250Hz filter, and it doesn't do as well with NR as wide
settings... and the wide filter setting makes the NR shine. It may even work
better than 3.25 NR narrow overall, I don't know.
My constant
I would like to share information on a product I ran into that does just
what I needed with my K3. I love my Diversity receive and think I must rate
it the best feature of the radio. My 2nd receive antenna is just a floor to
ceiling wire fed to the K3 through a little MFJ tuner. Believe it or not,
It must be right in front of me but I don't see in the manual or through
experimentation... What are the settings to allow sending CW while in SSB
mode?
Thanks. Wayne WA9VEE

Hi all. New K3 #2717 here, and thought you old timers might be amused, and
you yet-to-be old timers might be interested in the rig's 1st impressions.
I ordered on Monday, and it arrived in 7 days last Monday, a full week ahead
of when I expected it. I would say it took working on and with it all
12 matches
