Anyone seen an owner's manual for the K-Pod?

How?

Are you a beta tester?

Sure wish it was available so the mod could be done for power via the
interconnect cable.

Be plug and play ready then.

After all shipping starts tomorrow per Web shipping status. Anybody taking bets?

Yes. Short summary - the mod is simple IF you have the right parts. Solder a 6.8 ohm resistor across R82 (i.e. in parallel) on the Front Panel Board. No need to remove any panels but unscrew the 3 top and 2 bottom screws holding the FPB to the chassis and then use a flat head screw driver in the 2 bottom slots to pry FPB apart from chassis.

Elecraft provides both 1/10 W SMD (0603 size) and leaded 1/8 W resistors in the kit. 0603 SMD is a bit of a challenge but makes a very neat installation if you're experienced with soldering SMD, or Elecraft will install the mod for you if you email k3support at elecraft.com or call 831-763-4211.

Yes, a printed copy came with my Field Test unit.

Ron is pushing to get a PDF online.
