KX3BNCMDKT - BNC upgrade

[Petr, OK1RP/M0SIS]

KX3BNCMDKT Upgraded BNC connector for KX3. (User installed)  Includes an
integral VHF/UHF filter to reduce the possibility of weak signal
interference to very close by VHF/UHF radios, HTs etc.  Not required for
normal KX3 operation.

Hi all,

is there anybody who has experiences with this modification please?
I wonder how it looks like (some pics) and if it is necessary, helpful,
mandatory, "is a must" or what?

Thanks for info,
73 - Petr, OK1RP

Petr,

The quickest way to see it is to download the newest KX3 Assembly Manual
and look starting on page 24 and going through page 29.

I purchased it as a replacement BNC connector for my KX3, as I had, through
testing, determined that my connector was bad.  (The hypothesis was that it
had a deformed center jack by another user using a 75-ohm BNC cable, but
that was not conclusively proven.)

It was an easy replacement (except for the struggle to put the ATU back in
- make sure you line up the connector pins) and the KX3 is now working FB
once again.

I have no experience in using that versus the regular BNC connector; that
was what was told to me as the replacement BNC going forward.

Hi guys,

thanks for info.
Unfortunately in the manual is no more information about the LPF itself,
just how to install it.
In all cases I have at least an idea what it is...

regards,
