Keith, First off, thank you very much for the reply! I do appreciate it greatly! That is the info I needed! I now know the menus will give me most of what I need. As far as I know the radio has not been reset, nor has anyone been in it! That makes things a lot simpler! I do thank you

Hi Dave; Since it was here less than a year ago, no need to send it for updates. If it hasn't been altered, you can get all the options/filters from the menus. If it has been reset for some reason, we can send you the configuration file to re-load that was saved at last service. We don't

Hi Brian, Thank you for the suggestions, and the tidbits of the additional steps for add on items like new synths, etc. I have saved your email. I have sent Elecraft three seperate email requests across three weeks, and gotten precisely zero replies from supp...@elecraft.com address...

Dave, There have also been numerous component adds/mods over the years. Three that I did a couple years ago are 1. Increase the 12vdc accessory power from 500 ma to 1 A. Evidence is a 1A sticker on the rear of the K3. 2. Add a capacitor to the KPA3 to eliminate fan noise pickup evident after

Dave, The menu settings would be a good place to start, confirmed by taking the cover off.  One receiver is covered by the other, so some disassembly is required for the visual of the filters.  Then tuner, which i/o board etc. For the P3, the options are the SVGA board and the TX board.

Dave, This topic was recently covered either here or another reflector I subscribe to. There isn't a very good way to properly find all the options installed other than pulling the cover to see. There are two programs that may help: The Elecraft K3 Utility program and K3_EZ:
