Excess K3 Boards
Locked
 
|
Having just upgraded my K3 (s/n 76XX) with the new KXV3B and KIO3B boards, I have the old boards and some other things that I no longer need.
The original KXV3 and KIO3 boards are free to a good home. However, please don't ask for them if the result would be to move them from my spare parts box to yours. I would like them, or either of them, to go to someone who needs and would actually use them. They worked perfectly since new. I am pretty sure they were not injured during removal, but at the price of zero I am making no warranty. I also still have two of the original synths, though as I understand the supply (huge) and the demand (none), these will go gratis to the first person who could use a couple of drink coasters. I also have the outboard PR6-10, which is not gratis. Best offer by next Wednesday at 6:00 MDT takes it, CONUS shipping paid. Personal check only, no Paypal. This will ship with two male-male BNC connectors which allow it to be attached to the K3 with no cables other than the power supply and control line. Finally, I have one or two of the SMD capacitors left from the upgrade of KBPF3. Three are required for the mod, four are supplied with each mod kit. Perhaps presciently, I ordered two mod kits knowing that I would lose at least two of the little buggers. So I started with 8; three made it onto the board; two remain in the bag. That means three disappeared into the dust somewhere. In any case, anyone who is contemplating this mod might value having a couple of extras if their SMD skills are equal to mine (that is to say, completely absent.) These also are no cost to the taker - with the same request as above. I will send them in an envelope many orders of magnitude larger than the parts. For all but the PR6-10, first in time is first in right. Please reply off-list. Thanks, Ted, KN1CBR ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [hidden email] |

The KIO3 and KXV3 boards have been spoken for – several times over, in fact.
No requests yet for the old synths. They have to be useful for something. Skeet shooting, maybe? The PR 6-10 is still open for offers (see original post below), and the itsy-bitsy SMD caps are still available gratis, assuming I can find them among the other molecules in the packaging they came in. Have I mentioned that they are very small?

They should be great for practicing SMT rework. You can install
them in a K3 and see if they still work after you have played with them. If not, well, it was a learning experience. 73 Bill AE6JV On 5/6/17 at 7:49 PM, [hidden email] (Dauer, Edward) wrote: >No requests yet for the old synths. They have to be useful for something.

Hi All,
A short while ago there were a number of people interested in toggling macros. Also the limit of 16 was mentioned. I have a Kpod and been playing with it software wise after some help from Elecraft developer N6HZ Paul. When the Kpod is connected to via the USB port the normal radio interface is interrupted leaving all the functions to the USB. I can make the Kpod have 48 macros / buttons and do some other stuff to make toggling / rotating macros work but before I get started I would like to hear both on or off the reflector any ideas from potential users. I will publish what and when etc so anything off reflector will not be lost as all will be consolidated into one list. Just to make clear this will work on a raspberry PI or other linux device but at this time there is no intention of working with MS or Apple systems. Who's intereted in helping? 73 de Tony G6GLP --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. http://www.avg.com ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [hidden email] |
