Blown diodes are usually the problem and that seems easy enough to fix but I understand you have to completely disassemble the radio (seem to recall you had to remove the finals) to get to them. It c
Let us know how your experience goes with the ARRL insurance. I found I had to really stay on top of them to get anything done. k4ia Craig "Buck" Fredericksburg, Virginia USA ** See what's free at ht
I was able to get paid without buying a new Quadra amplifier - I just told them I would rather not replace the damaged equipment. So, I am not sure you have to buy a replacement. k4ia Craig "Buck" Fr
Try the other insurance company. You buy as much insurance as you think you need - you don't have to insure everything for its full value and you don't have to list unless you go over $10,000. And, f
As I understand, the hardware upgrade is only necessary if you want to use the improved (?) sweep function available in ver 2. You can download and install ver 2 software and it will run without the

Makes me wonder whether the 7800 will really end up being the 20-year-radio it was hyped to be, or if the 7800II isn't that far away, too. I noticed in the latest QST, Icom has an add with a spotligh

Mine went back to the shop for a bad chip on the logic board. It manifested when I downloaded the last version of the software (before the most recent). The radio went nuts and did all sorts of weird
I don't know where all these cost numbers come from. Here is the Order Form. _http://www.elecraft.com/K3/K3%20Order%20form%20rev%204.pdf_ (http://www.elecraft.com/K3/K3%20Order%20form%20rev%204.pdf)

On my radio, the raspy CW is particularly bad with Fast AGC and narrow bandwidths (<1khz). It is starting to sound like the DSP in an ICOM 756Prox. There is a definite "thump" at the end. NR works be
The metal diaphragm headsets I refer to probably cost no more than a few dollars. They had a cloth cord and a round metal plate the size of the earpiece. It stuck to the magnet in the coil. Very tinn
Personally, I would be perfectly happy with insulated, quarter-inch brass bolts placed on the back of the transceiver, allowing the owner to connect directly from the bolts to the power supply Amen!
