[Elecraft] Rambling on....

I gave my K3 another RTTY run out for the WAE contest this weekend. Filter
set-up exactly the same as CQWW RTTY using the High/low cut-off to about
200Hz made for simple copy of even the weakest US low power stations. The
rig once again performed flawlessly and with the newly acquired small beam
(TGM) I was able to 'null' out most of the EU wall. In fact, I set the
bandwidth to 600Hz and could still work reasonably comfortably - the beam
helping here. CQWW CW to look forward to at the end of this month. It will
be interesting to compare my score against the FT2000 in 2007. 

 

As an aside, I noticed today that the rear panel plate holding the mic
in/line in/out sockets is loose. Removing the top cover reveals that getting
to the panel is not so straightforward. Is there a sequenced procedure for
this minor bit of maintenance?

 

Finally, I ordered the KRX + filters on 10 Sep 08. When can I expect it?

 

Cheers,
