Re K3 PLUS

Bob Whelan
Hi
Not more talk about a K3! I hold a different view.

My view is that with the K2 etc Elecraft have convinced us and given us
the confidence  that we can ourselves build things that work.  So why
not roll your own K3?

Starting with your own K2, why not warm up the PC and do a bit of
programming, then get the bits and roll your own. The K2 is an ideal
experimental platform, with plenty of access points to the circuitry and
software.
So far I have improved the SSB module, experimented with better xtal
filters, built my own auto antenna switch, built a keypad to separate
some of the more used 'presses' and 'holds' and am just finishing a 2nd
receiver controller so my two K2s can chat to each other.

So less talk about K3 and more talk about new ideas/gadgets/modules and
improvements to what is already an excellent radio, the K2..

73 and thanks

Bob G3PJT
