K3/0 Forum?

To All,

I know the main advantage of having one central list (this one) is that it is monitored by Elecraft, and answers are provided by them, as well as other knowledgeable individuals on the forum.

I have moderated the [hidden email] for some time (Waaay before having a K3), and fortunately, Elecraft monitors that list as well.

Since there appears to be a need, I have created [hidden email] for anyone who would like to have a separate forum. I would certainly welcome Elecraft to participate, as well as RemoteRig and Remote hams.

I want to make it clear that I do not want to divide this forum, just provide a space where those who have a particular interest in Remote operating can gather.

I am currently borrowing a K3/0 in anticipation of one I have on order, and purchased RemoteRig when I purchased my K3. All I can say is that it was indeed fortunate that I had someone who has set up a number of remote stations with RemoteRig to guide me through the process. It is not "a walk in the park" for someone who has not done it before. Hopefully this new forum can help.

David from Elecraft did send me a separate communication dated June 2015 (K3 and K3S Remote System FAQ) on remote operating, and I've found it very helpful.

If anyone cares to join the list, [hidden email] should do it, but going to http://groups.yahoo.com and searching for Elecraft_K3-0 would be best. It will be moderated. Please place your callsign in the "why you want to join this group" for quick approval.

The lack of a good manual and no diagram for the K3/0 is way......below the normal Elecraft standards. It is especially bad if in addition to remote rig you sometimes want to use the USB cable and remote hams.
There just is no documentation as to what is going on!

While we appreciate the interest in additional forums, we can not watch them all
and only only infrequently read all the ones on Yahoo. If there end up lists for
every product we make, it will quickly be impossible for us to participate in
all of them.

If you have a question on using our products, please place it here first (or at
least in duplicate to any other forum) as we and our close to 5000 list readers
are most likely to have a quick answer for you :-) This list acts as our
central clearing house for questions and company announcements.

73,
Eric
