[Elecraft] KX3 Utility and iPad

[Keith Heimbold]

I have a couple pictures of the install on my qrz. The Installer still needs one more day to finish all the wiring and prepare for the arrival of the Hi Q 4/80 RT.

This will make my weekdays away from home in Los Angeles a tad bit easier though Of course I always miss the XYL and my newborn son, Max!

Cheers,

Keith

Still need to pull wire from engine and new breaker and solenoid to bed and husky toolbox to the deep cycle Optima battery and the amplifiers. The Hi Q 4"/80 RT is still in transit so that install will wait until next week.
