[Elecraft] Regarding KX2 VFO tuning resolution
Hi Neil, Presence or absence of display digits shows the tuning resolution. For any given operating setup, tapping RATE will toggle between two different resolutions, normally 10 Hz and 100 Hz. However, there are two cases where RATE toggles between 10 Hz and 1 Hz: - radio is in any DATA mode - audio peaking filter is turned on (CW mode; APF-AN switch) The 1 Hz digit is also briefly turned on for auto-spot purposes (in CW and PSK-D modes only, with MENU:CWT = ON). 73, Wayne N6KR > On Aug 14, 2023, at 11:49 AM, Neil Smith wrote: > > > I recently noticed my KX2 frequency read out has 2 numerals to the right of > the .

Re: [Elecraft] Newish… KX2 owner
That's normal. If it jumps in 10 Hz increments there is no point in showing 1 Hz resolution. And if fact, the number of digits shown tells you what your tuning rate is. 73, Dave AB7E On 8/14/2023 11:49 AM, Neil Smith wrote: I recently noticed my KX2 frequency read out has 2 numerals to the right of the .

I recently noticed my KX2 frequency read out has 2 numerals to the right of the . (Dot). I seem to recall there being 3 numerals. But since pushing RATE to speed thru the band only two numbers show. Example: 14.280.12x Anyone know how to restore the missing numeral - x?

Re: [Elecraft] Supplemental K3 Cooling
Keith, I had saved the configuration file before I sent the radio in for repair and I fully understand the need NOT to reload that file. However, is there a way to print out the saved file in a readable format so that I could set some of the old parameters in the new configuration?
