[Elecraft] K3-EME

[Dave]

I have used the k3 on 144 EME with a 400w am6154 amp and no preamp, see
http://g4fre.com/144eme.htm

I have now upgraded to an i0jxx 500w solid state amp see
http://g4fre.com/500w144pa.htm It only needs 3w of drive from the K3 for
full output


The K3 mainly gets used as an I.F. on 1296 thro 5760MHz; my main interest.
The SDRIQ used as a panadaptor sure helps track down the activity

Hello all,

I have been thinking of buying another K3 for
My 2 meter EME station .
Would like to knew if there is anyone doing this
and what kind of power amp they are using.
I know that the 2M output would drive my TE-System
Power amp to about 350 watts.
However later I am planning on a power amp with more
output.

Thanks 73 Ken K5DNL
