K3 emulating Tentec OMNI VI+

[Don Rasmussen]

Lee,

You're right, everyone should leave their K3 CONFIG as shipped by the factory. Any deviation from this should carry a stiff fine from the FCC followed up by a revocation of the station license for repeat offenders.

;-)

Those ham types and their "golden screwdrivers", I tell ya. !

I enjoy A/B comparisons and dialing the K3 around brings me pleasure. From the hits on the website, one or two others seem to share the idea.


[Elecraft] K3 emulating Tentec OMNI VI+ - Why?

No...I've never wonder why.  Should I?  Could someone tell me the point of doing this?  I do not want to go back to the NC-57, the HW-100, etc.  Why do this?

In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply.  If you don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it.  If you can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense.  Is Common Sense divine?

Ever wonder what an OMNI VI+ sounds like? Give it a try with your K3.

Hmmm. I wonder if reducing the power supply voltage to 10 volts and using
18ga power cable would make the K3's keying sound like the Omni VI+++?
