K3S and P3 TX Monitoring

Edward A. Dauer
The P3 TX Monitor info is on the website as well.

Looks like they made as much as possible of the K3S retrofittable to the
K3.  Neat stuff.  Now we get to line up at the candy store.

My only disappointment is that TX monitoring in the P3 won¹t show on the
SVGA monitor.  I wonder why?  I guess the SVGA isn¹t just a mirror of the
display . . . ?

I think the main reason that the P3 SVGA monitor does not show the TX signal
is because the two items are totally separate with regard to signal source and
processing.

       P3 SVGA — signal source is the I/F interface from the K3 (K3s).
       TX Monitor — signal source is the RF sensor.

       P3 SVGA — processing is DSP on the signal to create frequency spectrum.
       TX Monitor — processing may not use DSP if no frequency spectrum is offered (just time based).

In reply to this post by Edward A. Dauer
The SVGA has always had a different display from the P3. For one
thing, there is the decoded CW/digital at the bottom. Being able
to TX monitor on the SVGA may be a future firmware upgrade for
the SVGA.

K3s and K3S.

Terry Schieler-2
I see that Elecraft is using the lower case "s" in the model number of the new K3s announcements.

In just this short time today it has become apparent that this reflector may now need a pretty precise discriminator between the K3s (plural) that we already own and the new K3s that was just announced.

"I'm selling my K3s" can be interpreted as a guy selling all three of his K3 radios.
"I'm selling my K3s" can be interpreted as a guy selling the brand new, improved model K3s that was just delivered to him!

;o)

That is not correct grammar.  "K3's" is a contraction meaning
"K3 is" or is the possessive as in "the K3's tuning knob".

If anything, one probably needs to use or spell out "multiple
K3 transceivers".

Yes, Miss Grammar would rap your knuckles for that.

The more interesting question is, what is the plural of K3s?  K3ss?

Re: K3s and K3S.

Lyle Johnson
K3 = original radio, singular
K3s = original radio, plural
K3's = original radio, singular, possessive
K3s' = original radio, plural, possessive

K3S = new radio, singular
K3Ses = new radio, plural
K3S's = new radio, singular, possessive
K3Ses' = new radio, plural, possessive

There will be a test at the end of second period...

In that vein, would anyone care to revisit the topic of 73's?

73 (already plural, does not need to be made possessive either),

Generally it's supposed to be "K3S" (capital). Please use that in email.

However, on the radio itself, and in the owner's manual (etc.) we use a slightly smaller capital "S". To be specific, about 85% of a full-height capital. This just seemed like the right thing to do. Don't get me started on branding and graphic design....

I'm looking forward to seeing a blog post with the official "S" scaling :)

Re: K3s and K3S.

Jack Brindle-2
In reply to this post by Lyle Johnson
Let’s make it easier (or is that harder?). It’s a Small-Caps ’S’. Not lower case.
Or, look at the way ELECRAFT is spelled on the products. The E is higher than the other characters.
The rest are small-caps…

Now the exercise is to find a way to type this in standard ASCII…

Re: K3s and K3S.

Ermm.... No it doesn't. "Best 73's" translates to "Best best wisheses" which
also attempts to be possessive. The apostrophe doesn't really translate at
all and is superfluous. :-)

In reply to this post by Alan Bloom
The big error on everyone’s part is that 73’s is not plural but rather it is possessive.
Thus, saying 73’s is equivalent to yielding your best regards entirely over to the
other person.  It is a more intimate way of saying 73.

Thanks Wayne.  I sure understand that.  Yes.  Having a graphic art
background I could tell it was a capital S in a slightly smaller font in the
literature.  Just not able to do that on the reflector.  Excited about the
new product announcements.

Re: K3s and K3S.

In reply to this post by Terry Schieler-2
I disagree, Wunder. "K3's" is possessive (as in, "...the K3's wonderful
receive sensitivity..."), not plural. Maybe we need to convince the Elecraft
powers that be to rename the K3s as the K3S (capital "S"), so we can tell
the difference. :-)

And, for the record, I was a middle school English teacher in a prior life
and have always been something of a grammar cop.  :-)

Use "K3's" for multiple K3 transceivers.
