Elecraft K3/100 160-6m Transceiver Serial #2502 with the standard 2.7 kHz
filter, the KAT3 Internal Auto Antenna Tuner, KPA100W Amplifier and XRX3
Subreceiver. The subreceiver is identical to the main receiver and has its
own 400Hz filter. It can tune the same range of frequencies as the main
receiver and is terrific at busting DX pileups.
- This K3 also comes with lots of extras including:
- Three (3) additional CW Filters: 700Hz, 400Hz and 250Hz for the utmost
in selectivity.
- KXV3A Interface Option which provides a separate receive antenna input
and output, an input and output for use with an external transverter, and a
buffered i.f. output. (Handy for adding an external Panadapter or SDR).
- The K3 has been upgraded with the KSYN3A synthesizers in both the Main
and Subreceiver. The synthesizer produces cleaner synthesized signals
leading to better transmitter and receiver performance and has a better
switch time to improve TX/RX switching for high speed CW.
- There is no internal sound card in this K3, but included in this
bundle is the TigerTronics Signal Link USB interface which adds an external
sound card and comes with the Elecraft connection cable and complete
documentation. Just what you need to work the new digital modes such as FT8.
- You can connect a PC that has a serial port to download firmware and
software upgrades as well as to allow computer control of the K3 with your
favorite contest and general loggers. No serial port? No problem—I include
the original Elecraft KUSB Universal Serial Bus Adapter cable which allows
you to simply plug the K3 into an available USB port.
- This K3 was upgraded, calibrated and aligned by the Elecraft Factory
in 2015 to meet or exceed all factory specifications.
- The installation and operation manuals are included as well as all
upgrade and repair documentation.
- This unit is sold *AS IS *and subject to the following *caveat* which
may or may not be of concern to you: I am unable to get my Begali Single
Lever Paddle to work properly with the Elecraft Internal Keyer. I can only
send dits or dahs (depending on the menu option) but not both. In other
words one side of the paddle does not work. There may be a problem with the
paddle jack connection. I have always preferred to use either a straight
key or my external Winkeyer USB as it performs well with the software
programs that I use and it plugs directly into the Key Jack which works
fine.
I am asking $1,695 for this package + Shipping via Priority US Mail to
CONUS.
