K3 boards
Locked
 
|
I have a self assembled K3 and at the time I did not want to get the board that had the second SO-239 antenna port but now I do. I do not see it as being available on the Elecraft site. As a matter of fact there is little in the way of further K3 hardware support.
Also I wanted to install the KIO3B board with USB and the board that has the 12,10 and 6 meter preamplifiers on it, which is standard on the K3S. Are these boards not possible to be installed on a K3? Thanks to all todd WB2ZAB ______________________________________________________________ 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 Message delivered to [hidden email] |

They're probably listed under K3S.
Easiest is to use the phone, tell them what you want and order it.

Todd,
All that is possible to install on the K3. You want the KAT3A option for the K3S and K3. See the K3S order page. The KIO3B option is available for the K3 as well as the KXV3B - see the list of upgrades for the K3 on http://www.elecraft.com/elecraft_prod_list.htm#k3 - scroll down a bit to Upgrades for the K3. 73, Don W3FPR On 6/29/2016 10:35 AM, todd ruby wrote: > I have a self assembled K3 and at the time I did not want to get the board that had the second SO-239 antenna port but now I do.

I just finished installing these two boards in my K3. It took
about 3 hours from checking the contents of the kits to my first PSK31 QSO. My initial impressions are favorable, particularly the relative lack of wire clutter behind the K3. Setting up for digital and adjusting the levels is the same as with an external sound card. I use VOX for TX control and it works the same way too. 73 Bill AE6JV On 6/29/16 at 7:35 AM, [hidden email] (todd ruby) wrote: >Also I wanted to install the KIO3B board with USB and the board >that has the 12,10 and 6 meter preamplifiers on it, which is >standard on the K3S.
