KX3 #3933 Alive and kicking!
Locked

Hi group!
About 30 minutes ago I was finished with assembling my KX3 #3933 with KXFL3 and KXAT3! The rig works perfect, and WOW that receiver! Just listening with about 25 feet of wire though the living room, hihi. Up here in the Arctic we still have 5 feet of snow and no possibilities to do antenna work for yet a few weeks or so, but when snow is gone I will erect my HyGain DX-77. What a lovely radio the KX3 is! Well done again Elecraft! 72/3 de Hans / LA2MOA Vardo, Arctic Norway Grid: KQ50ni IOTA: EU-141 ______________________________________________________________ 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 |

Thanks Steve!
I guess that my QTH on 70.25 degrees North, makes mine the northernmost "residental" KX3, hi! 73! Hans / LA2MOA 2013/4/12 <[hidden email]> > Congratulations!

Hans
You're in for some big surprises with the KX3 I know that I have been for sure and it continues by the day since I received it in Jan of this year. My contacts keep increasing in distance it seems and from home (the SW corner of MO.) using my vertical a AV-18HT most all the time on 10-80m. The internal tuner is fantastic and will tune everything I have thrown at it. Yesterday morning on 20m at 08:30 utc. I worked a VK2 with 10w and received a 59 from him had to ask twice the second for the true report it was still a 59. Yes I know propagation but still 10w and I copied him at 59+ 20 at 1000w, I was well pleased. That was my first time that far into Oceania for me. My 2 K3's sitting beside my KX3 are finding more free time lately same for the Alpha. Did turn both on last week to work a new one VK9CZ and had to wait the 5 min for the Alpha to warm up. I decided I needed to use the Alpha after I couldn't break the pileup with the other K3 and KPA500 they were very weak. 73, Fred/N0AZZ K3 Ser #'s 6730/5299--KX3 # 2573--K2/100--KAT100 P3/SVGA--KPA500--KAT500--W2 -----Original Message----- From: [hidden email] [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of Hans Østnell Sent: Friday, April 12, 2013 3:40 AM To: [hidden email] Cc: Elecraft Discussion List Subject: Re: [Elecraft] KX3 #3933 Alive and kicking!
