I believe the most important item to note is the “TX SAMPLE” jack on the rear 
panel.  That has SDR written all over it.

Anybody else notice the bigger box, probably a necessity, on the KPA1500
or the change in color of the LCD from Orange to Blue?

Hm...bigger box, change age of color scheme. K3X (Extreme) or K4?

Yeah, I'm content for now with my K3. But a K4 with a panadapter would
definitely pique my interest. I hope it can still be available as a kit and
reasonably priced :)

The blue in the display on the new amp would match a waterfall
display on something. Perhaps a cabinet the same size of the new amp. I
decided in January I was not going to buy another radio until Dayton.

Actually, Hara closed for good.  It was awful the one time I was there 
for a US Air Force conflagration, they'd have been better off holding it 
in a hangar at WPAFB.  Never been to the Greene County Fairgrounds, but 
it looks good.

Re: [Elecraft] Should we expect something new in Dayton?

2017-05-02 Thread Harry Yingst via Elecraft

Surface mount actually is pretty easy once you do it a few times.

In some cases it can actually be easier, there is none of the having to reform 
leads on components

like when you are provided a 2.5mm lead spaced part to go in holes 5mm apart 
etc.

All I use is my regular iron with a fine point tip some .5mm (.020") solder and 
a magnifying visor.



It's just like going from the old point to point with tubes to PC boards and 
ICs, not harder just different.

I think a lot of people are afraid to try it, but once yo uget the hand of 
doing it you will find it's almost easier.

Agreed.  While I understand surface mount components have made kits harder to 
support, building the K2 was some of the most fun I have had in ham radio.

IIRC I saw a photo of a K3S next to a KPA1500. It struck me that the KPA's
enclosure was slightly larger than the K3S and I thought Hmm, maybe a K4
incorporating a P3 in a similar enclosure my be on the back burner :-).

The Dayton Hamvention is no longer in Dayton.  I guess the Hara Arena

IDXC wasn't enough? [:-)  I believe Elecraft is plenty big enough now to 
have more than one iron in the fire at any given time.  That doesn't 
equate to announcement of course.
