[Elecraft] KAT500 no PC comms

Elecraft is taking a l_o_n_g time to repair the USB port on my K4d, so I bought a used K3 (non-s) as a backup rig. It works fine, and interfaces correctly with my KPA500 and KAT500. (The KAT is already configured for all frequency steps on all bands, and I can hear the KAT relays click when I c

[Elecraft] For Sale: Noktua fans for K3s

Re: [Elecraft] KAT500 no PC comms

The KAT500 does not use the same cable as the K3 or K4 or, for that matter, the KPA500. It needs a cable with stereo mini-phone connector. Elecraft has a USB cable that plugs into the KAT500 and works quite well. 73, Jack, W6FB > On Mar 10, 2024, at 12:33 PM, Mike Dodd wrote: > > Elecraft is

[Elecraft] K3S

I feel bad about my K3S sitting all alone on the shelf. Haven’t used it since I got my K4D, so I guess it’s time to let it go. Serial Number 101xx.ATU, sub receiver, 5 filters in main receiver, and 4 in the sub.9+ condition. Works as it should. Had it back to Elecraft a few years ago for a tune
