Neat K3 Video!

Dave, G4AON
Just as well I have an Acom 1000, it works perfectly with my K3...
No keying issues and no ALC needed (or provided) and one simple phono to phono coax lead between them for keying.

K3/100 #80
Acom 1000

=================
The biggest events I have seen are pretty important: The reversed
polarity of the ALC voltage (K3 ALC polarity setup is not presently
compatible with widely used amps from Yaesu and ICOM - perhaps
incompatible with ALL amps requiring ALC, but I am not sure about
that). This was discussed on the k3 yahoo reflector a couple weeks
ago. Also the mention here  the other day of a similar polarity
mismatch problem with a CW loopback feature for QSK (that I don't
really understand).

Elecraft says they will develop a work around for the ALC problem at
some future time. This ALC thing is a major item for AMP users trying
to follow their manufacturer's instructions for setup.
