I got a new KX1 kit along with the 30/80 band addition at the Elecraft booth at SEAPAC this weekend. Now, all I need is the time to put it together. I am willing to trade my Norcal 40A for 15-hours of someone's spare time. You can e-mail the hours.
So, I am thinking though that I want to take the easy route and have someone do my toroids for me. Along with the KX1, I got sheet of paper describing a toroid winding service from Toroid Guy. Any recommendations. The $9 price for the KX1 seems hard to beat, I paid more then that for my glass of wine with dinner last night. Thanks for any comments. 73, phil, K7PEH ______________________________________________________________ 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 |
Phil,
I am emailing 15 hours right now :-) - please send the NC-40A! More important than the toroids for the KX1, you will need the toroids for the KXB3080 which are more difficult than usual to wind correctly. So add another $10 to that toroid price and add the shipping that Mychael charges. It is really a great service and his toroids are quite professional. 73, Don W3FPR Phil Hystad wrote: > I got a new KX1 kit along with the 30/80 band addition at the Elecraft booth at SEAPAC this weekend.

don,
I didn't see the hours attached to your message. Did you use the right MIME encoding? Yes, I know about the 3080 toroids and this is probably the main reason that I decided to look into having someone wind them for me. And, yes, I forgot to include the full price for both sets but my glass of wine actually cost me $12.50 and my wife's glass was $9 so we still paid more for wine then the cost of winding toroids. Of course there is postage too. phil On Jun 6, 2010, at 6:22 PM, Don Wilhelm wrote: > Phil, > > I am emailing 15 hours right now :-) - please send the NC-40A! > > More important than the toroids for the KX1, you will need the toroids for the KXB3080 which are more difficult than usual to wind correctly.
