KX3/PX3/KXPA100 + accessories for sale

[David Orman]

Hi,

I have a KX3/PX3/KXPA100 combination I'd like to sell. I am the original
owner, and purchased all of the above in 8/2014. The KX3/PX3 was purchased
factory assembled, the KXPA100 was purchased as a kit, and assembled by me.
The KX3 is fully loaded, as you will see below, to include the 2m option.

All of the equipment is in excellent condition, and the PX3/KX3 have the
Side-KX options installed, including the plastic covers. The covers are in
good shape, with minor scratching as to be expected from plastic covers.
Photos are included below, with covers off/on.

In the interest of full disclosure, while performing the suggested
capacitor modification to improve the power-on delay on the PX3 (as guided
by Elecraft) a solder pad pulled up. This was repaired with a solder bridge
to the new capacitor in question, and the unit has functioned perfectly
since this time (April 2017). I am adjusting the requested price
accordingly, even though there is no impact to the performance or
functionality of this unit (and the power on delay is significantly
improved!)

I have included a video in the link below so you can see the
PX3/KX3/KXPA100 functioning. The cursor will skip ahead if you move it
quickly, but it's always done that since new, and as far as I can tell is
common to PX3s in general (my friend's does the same). I made sure to
include this in the video (you'll see it happen at one point) - the cursor
will move faster than I rotate the knob. I also adjust ref/scale and move
around the band both via radio and via PX3 in the video, so you can see it
is functioning as expected.

Everything else is exactly as delivered from Elecraft, and functioning
properly. The KX3 has had the full set of calibration performed on it, to
include extended temperature compensation, nulling, and filters, as I have
a bench of test equipment including a GPSDO locked signal generator.

Here's what I'm including, and current list pricing:

MH3 Hand Mic. for KX3
$59.95

KXFL3 Dual-Passband Roofing Filter
$149.95

KXAT3 ATU for the KX3

PX3-F Panadapter for KX3 - Factory Assembled
$599.95

XG50 Simple 49.380 MHz Signal Source
$39.95

SUBTOTAL $3,749.40

Keep in mind this subtotal does not include the Side-KX sides/covers. I am
also including the original sides for PX3/KX3 in case you wish to use them
instead. I do have the upgrade board for the paddle, as well, as well as
various tools/parts for the accessories. I am also including a few KXUSB
cables which currently list for $32.95. I'll also throw in the 2m antenna
seen attached to the radio in the photos.

KX3 serial number is 6755, PX3 is 0630, and KXPA100 is 1218.

-------------------

I'm willing to sell the whole package for $2800 OBO.

My reason for selling is simple, I'm moving up to a pure desktop
(configuring a K3s as we speak) setup as I've not found myself working
remote as I had anticipated.

https://photos.app.goo.gl/g6rqVoXqF8i1FnL63 has photos and the video
showing operation, taken today (Jan. 16, 2018).

I live in San Antonio, TX and would prefer to arrange for local (you can
check it out in person) or regional pickup (happy to meet half-way) via
cash, but check/money order can be negotiated for remote buyers as well (US
buyers only, need to wait for check to clear/MO to be validated - been
burned before which is why I prefer local sales). I have batteries, so if
meeting elsewhere, we can turn it all on so you can verify operation if
desired.

My call-sign is K5DJO, name is David Orman, please respond directly to my
email ( [hidden email] ) and I'll pass you the rest of my contact
information so we can discuss via phone if you'd like! My address and
information is current in FCC/ULS, and I can provide additional
photos/videos if requested.

Respectfully,
David Orman / K5DJO
