As another member of the field test team, I'll weigh in on the knob size issue: I, too, have been concerned about button/knob size and spacing. However, it appears not to be a problem. I am running t
N6XI: slightly smaller and much smoother than the one on the MP. The sub-receiver tuning knob is much smaller than the one on the MP but it's all alone in its portion of the panel and easy to use as

ORIGINAL MESSAGE: W6WRT REPLY: with TX and RX on the same frequency. I do it all the time. Sometimes I lock the TX, sometimes not. Yes, I said that. But *if you have a Sub RX*, you cannot then use it
Bill, I'm pretty sure the yaesu FT-One back in the early 80s had this same configuration. I had the opportunity to use one of these at the 20M position from N5AU in the 1982 CQWW SSB contest and thou
appears not to be a problem. I am running the K3 in an SO2R configuration with an FT-1000MP and comparing the two closely. The two dual-concentric knobs are actually a little larger than those on the
It seems very clear to me that a lot of thought went into the types and positioning of K3 controls. For example I see that RF Gain and AF Gain are on the innermost part of two separate concentric kno
together Did they do THAT??? (haven't looked at the panel yet since why lust after that which you can't afford for some time.....) Sheesh..... that's the 2nd thing I really hate about the controls on
The AF Main and Sub are concentric (like the FT1000MP), not the AF Main and Squelch. The RF gain and Squelch are concentric. 73, Tom N2CU <>< _______________________________________________ CQ-Contes
The K3 AF concentric control has Main AF Gain on the middle and Sub-RX AF Gain on the ring. The K3 RF concentric control has Main RF Gain on the middle and Sub-RX RF Gain on the ring. However, the us
