[K3] DSP Modification

[W0JFR]

There is an ad on eHam for K3 #1055. He says he sent it back to Elecraft and had "DSP board mod for enhanced RX/TX fidelity."

Does anyone know what he's talking about?

John,

Sounds like 'specmanship' to me.  I don't know about any mod like that.

A while back Wayne posted a message about such a DSP board mod on the
Yahoo Groups list:

I got the following response from the seller:

Have you considered that maybe its not listed because they don't want anyone else doing it but Elecraft?
Ask Wayne, Rene, & Eric @ Elecraft. They can tell you all about it. Also contact AD4C, he had it done to his K3. Mine maybe only the third or forth one modded. The name aptly describes the mod.

Do you really think Elecraft has secret K3 modifications?

I emailed the seller and this is his response:

Since it is not on the official web site could it be reposted on this
reflector?
