I recently created a mirror image of the K3 rear panel. I find this
handy to place behind my K3 to assist in plugging cables in the correct jacks. Anyone who may find this of use is welcome to download it from <http://www.n5na.net/download/k3_rear_panel_mirror.pdf> 73, Alan N5NA ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |

Great idea! Many thanks.
Printed, so now when I need to reach back there, I put the print on the top of the K3. Cheers, Alan :) Alan D.

I also find it to be very useful, enough so that I would encourage Elecraft to arrange with N5NA to include it in the next revision to the K3 manual. 73, Dave AB7E On 6/7/2010 6:16 AM, Alan D.

Of course it's Elecraft's image so there's nothing to arrange with me. I just flipped it around and redid the labels so they weren't backwards.
But I WOULD be flattered if Elecraft decided to use my little idea! 73, Alan N5NA

Alan,
The landscape print of the image is just about full-scale, and that makes it even easier to use. :) Here's a thought: Rotate the image along the horizontal axis, so that when it's on top of the K3, it matches the exact connector vertical locations as well. As one might feel when reaching over the top. (Not what we'd do with our old tube rigs and high voltage! hi) Thanks again! 73, Alan Alan D.

Thanks for the suggestion Alan. I've added that perspective as page two
of the pdf. Just re-download the pdf at <http://www.n5na.net/download/k3_rear_panel_mirror.pdf> and you'll have both views. 73, Alan N5NA Alan D.

Perfect! Take your choice. :)
Electraft: Consider putting the link to the pdf on http://www.elecraft.com/K3/K3.htm 73, Alan Alan D.
