Sean, It sounds like the voltage being applied to the internal circuits of the KX3 is dropping below 8 volts, which is the voltage at which it will turn itself off. Check inside for any loose connections (weak battery holder springs for instance) or power wire terminals that may be partially

[Elecraft] Kx3 turns itself off

Hi - I having been trying to find QSOs on 20m this weekend on my kx3 and AX-1 I have tried both with fully charged NimH AA batteries with power set to 5W and with an external battery with power set to 15w. On a few occasions, my kx3 has turned itself off. I see a flash of asterisks on the

[Elecraft] KX3 and hearing moon noise

I need some help on this. I am using the KX3/PX3 as a 10meter IF for my 10.368MHz EME rig. I am also using it with the  QRA64 EME communications program. I'd like to have an audio output I can use from one unit or the other that is not AGC controlled to use for monitoring the sun or moon noise

Re: [Elecraft] [KX3] HS-5 'phones on KX3 & KX2

Greetings, When I listen to my KX2 and KX3 using the Kenwood HS-5 headphones, I hear a square wave-like buzz bilaterally. Active signals can push the buzz into the background, but the buzz is annoying when there is no signal. Listening to the KX radios on another set of headphones does not

Good question. Could you be HOLDING the button instead of just tapping it? A HOLD (long press) on the button will take you to Pitch, which does return N/A. Grant NQ5T KX3 (8342)/KXPA100 > On Aug 25, 2019, at 4:41 PM, k1oj wrote: > > k1oj

[Elecraft] KX3 CMP n/a

I'm not much of a phone op but my kx3 will not allow CMP setting in ssb mode. When I tap the CMP button it says n/a. What do I have set incorrectly? Thanks, OJ k1oj Houston, Tx __ Elecraft mailing list Home:

[Elecraft] KX3 not working on receive

Rick, have you tried to check the ribbon cable inside the rig? Wouldn't hurt to unplug & plug back in just in case it wasn't making a good connection.  Reed  W4JZ __ Elecraft mailing list Home:

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 not working on receive

Thanks for the suggestions to help with my ailing KX3. I have tried them, and also a factory reset. No joy. Looks like the rig is not going into the receive mode. The fact that injecting an S9 signal at 7040 KHz does not indicate on the S Meter makes me think the KX3 is staying in the
