I think I may just be overcome by an embarrassment of riches. I have
recently acquired a K3 and the serial to USB cable to run the utility
program.
I would like to try digital -- particularly PSK31 -- which I now do with
IC7000 and Signalink TNC. I have been using FLDIGI satisfactorily.
I have recently added P3 to my K3 and (surprise!) I love it. My
(previously owned) P3 came with TXMON. TXMON works fine with dummy load, but
often
shows very high SWR readings when K3 ATU is used with non-resonant antenna.
I understand that the TXMON "looks at" antenna and doesn't know
When I got my K3 last year, I didn't realize that the deal included a copy
of Fred Kady's K3 book. I ordered a copy from Elecraft, but I was too late
in trying to cancel my order. Result is that I have a nice used copy
(residing on my clothes hamper covered with tear stains and candle wax)
I suppose I should look for this in the database, but I'm not really sure
what to call it. I have a nice K3 and, generally I am delighted with it. One
small splinter as I slide down the banister happens so infrequently that I
suspect it would be difficult to demonstrate "on demand." When

First off, I really like reading the Elecraft reflector. Not only is it my
main source of info about Elecraft gear and operation, but many interesting
other ham radio (and life in general) topics. However, there are times

I really would like a quality antenna to go with my KX3. I use 20 and 40
meters as my main bands. The AXE1 antenna with a 40 meter "extender"
would be on the way to me as soon as it could be made available. I'm now
in a restricted area with regard to antennas and am doing a bit of

I have a Raspberry Pi in a go box with APRS software and a program
called Chirp. Chirp can program a whole slew of different radios (Not
Elecraft) :-(. In Chirp I have files that have all the local repeaters
and can install them as needed. I would love to add Elecraft utilities
to my Pi. Steve

I just bought a KX-3 so I have a couple questions about antennas. I
would like suggestions for man portable and portable fixed. I have
received suggestions for end fed antennas for fixed ops but will
entertain others. Thanks Steve kb1chu

You must remember that the parts that go in much of this equipment is
supplied by the lowest bidder. If a component can be left out even if
its only a few pennies it will be left out. I was in the service
business and owned a business for over 25 years doing installations. I
was never asked
