FS: K3S/10 - $1095 shipped USPS

All,

Thinning my heard.

FS: I have too many HF transceivers, and this one is not getting the use it
deserves. Spare to my needs is this Elecraft K3S/10 transceiver, serial
5623. This unit was upgraded from a K3/10 to a K3S/10 with the KSYN3A mod
added - it has the KXV3A transverter I/O interface - and has an IRC 701A
400 Hz 8-pole CW filter. Comes with microphone, power cable, and printed
manual. For those with LDMOS amplifiers, this 12 watt radio has more than
enough drive. Asking $1095 shipped to any US Postal Address - PayPal
(friends and family) or USPS Money Order!

Re: FS: K3S/10 - $1095 shipped USPS

Since the S/N is lower than 10,000 it's not a K3S, regardless of what
synthesizer it has. Suggesting someone drive an amplifier with this set to 12
watts is a disservice to other hams. It's a 10-watt radio with two extra watts
of IMD when operated this way. This coming from an ARRL staffer is particularly
troubling to me.

I'm sure this is just a misunderstanding. No one would intentionally
misrepresent their Elecraft gear in this way.

There is NO REASONABLE WAY to make a K3 into a K3s... It may be an
upgraded K3, but it can NEVER be a K3s.

Please correct your listing... :-)

Calling an upgraded K3 a K3s may be an overstatement, but the price seems
pretty good for an upgraded K3s.

Re: FS: K3S/10 - $1095 shipped USPS

realize its a 10 watter, and only says the synth was upgraded, if you
upgrade to 100W
and the other new boards for that serial number you are talking pretty
expensive,
well over another 1000 bucks,
Right now there are a number of K3 radios with all updates and both
receivers, full of filters
for sale and prices are under 2000 bucks. lot cheaper than updating a
10 watter with one
receiver. Have seen them as low as 1400 for both receivers, 100w and
all updated boards.

This sounds like better directed personally rather than to reflector. I think your advice is right on.

It is not an "overstatement".... it is a falsehood, unintentional though
it might be.

No PA or tuner? And the PAs and Tuners are being stuffed into the last
few K3s/100 packages....
Better act fast if you ever want them... :-)
