A Note to K3 Owners
On behalf of our entire design team, we’d like to thank you for choosing the Elecraft K3 transceiver.
The K3—like its predecessor, the K2—reflects our desire to go beyond what other high-performance
transceivers have offered. It isn’t just a home-station rig; at about 8 to 9 pounds, it can accompany you
wherever you go, whether it’s out to your back porch or halfway around the world. And it’s the only
rig in its class that you can build yourself. Above all, we want the K3 to be ready for any operating
situation you encounter, and be more enjoyable to use than any transceiver you’ve ever owned.
In addition to this manual, you’ll find much more information on the K3 on our web site, including
operatingtips, answers to frequently asked questions, and information on firmware upgrades.
