Elecraft posted a photograph on Twitter last week at the same time as the
KXPA100 photos and, I believe, showed it at Visalia. A full size K3 front panel on a KX3-like enclosure - possibly thinner than the KX3 (hard to tell from photo). They say it will be shown at Friedrichshaven too. 73 Geoff G3UCK -----Original Message----- From: Jan Erik Holm Sent: Monday, April 29, 2013 8:12 AM To: Elecraft Reflector Subject: [Elecraft] K3/0 - mini If I understand my source correctly there is going to be one such thing available.

I saw it at Visalia and this is a good description.
This kind of remote rig setup makes possible a new, and possibly very perverse kind of operation. Take your mobile rig around the country and work yourself on the remote rig from various locations. A really dedicated operator could get WAS this way. Of course it would not be possible to log the contacts on eQSL. I don't know what LotW would do with working yourself from different QTHs. What a QSL checker would say about paper QSLs from yourself I leave to your imagination, but at least postage would be cheap. :-) Cheers - Bill, AE6JV On 4/29/13 at 2:38 AM, [hidden email] (Geoffrey Downs) wrote: >Elecraft posted a photograph on Twitter last week at the same >time as the KXPA100 photos and, I believe, showed it at >Visalia.

I would be extremely interested in this for business travel and would be a great option to the PC micro dongle that remoterig offers. Is there a timeline for this to be launched to market?

A little bit off topic.

Well it depends on the specific rules but I don't see it as much
different than making a sked to work a difficult place. The RF is going through the air between two radios in two separate locations. Of course the checks and balances of having two hams vouch for the contact are missing so the rule makers might want to forbid it on that basis. But then since the whole thing involves only one person there is no reason he can's issue the certificate too. :-) Cheers - Bill, AE6JV On 4/29/13 at 9:14 AM, [hidden email] wrote: >Bill, you stated [quote] > >>> Take your mobile rig around the country and work >yourself on the remote rig from various locations. >A really dedicated operator could get WAS this way .<<< > >Wouldn't that be deliberately CHEATING? ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill Frantz | Since the IBM Selectric, keyboards have gotten 408-356-8506 | steadily worse.
