[Elecraft] Elecraft SP3 External Speaker details

[edeveloper_1--- via Elecraft]

Hi Wayne,
Thanks for the update - from the photos on Twitter it looks like a very nice unit. As I recall there have been a number of discussions on this reflector debating the merits of various third-party external speakers and quite a few called on Elecraft to produce one of its own, to match the K-Line.
Congratulations to Elecraft for once again listening to its customers and responding. I look forward to hearing the new SP3 in action!

Hi all,

The SP3 is our new external speaker. We'll have a product brochure and photos soon, but here's a brief list of features:

- styled to match the Elecraft K-Line

- same size as the Elecraft P3 Panadapter, with matching fold-up tilt stand

- works with any transceiver, but optimized for use with the K3 and K3S

- custom-built, high-quality 4-ohm oval speaker with outstanding passband characteristics

- A/B source selector switch

- two jacks for mono or stereo input sources, and one mono extension output, allowing
  convenient switching of the following configurations:

  - one transceiver, one speaker
  - two transceivers, one speaker, selected by A/B switch
  - one transceiver, two speakers (stereo)
  - two transceivers, two speakers, selected by A/B switch (stereo)

The SP3 will be sold assembled/tested only.

73,
Wayne
