Re: [Elecraft] AXE1 40m Extension

I see note to attach the radials to the transceiver near the antenna jack. If using a short coax to mount the antenna on THE Elecraft tripod base, is connecting radials to that base preferred or is connecting them to the transceiver still advised? I use the Elecraft AX1 radial and a separate

Does this also work the same for the KAT500? I've not tried it. Bob, K4TAX Sent from my iPhone > On Aug 28, 2019, at 5:56 PM, HB via Elecraft wrote: > > Me too!! > >> On Aug 28, 2019, at 5:32 PM, Jay Rutherford wrote: >> >> Ordered mine! >> >>> On Wed, Aug 28, 2019, at 16:40,

Hi Kent, This is a feature of the tuner in the K3/K3S as well. Wayne On Wed, Aug 28, 2019 at 2:58 PM Kent Olsen wrote: > I ordered mine. > > Looking at the instructions, "If you’re using the ATU in a KX2 or KX3, > note that tapping ATU TUNE a > second time within 5 seconds may find a better

Re: [Elecraft] AXE1 40m Extension

I ordered mine. Looking at the instructions, "If you’re using the ATU in a KX2 or KX3, note that tapping ATU TUNE a second time within 5 seconds may find a better match." I never knew this. Thanks 73 Kent N6WT On Wed, Aug 28, 2019 at 2:34 PM Jay Rutherford wrote: > Ordered mine! > > On Wed,
