[Elecraft] KSB2 Setup issue

2009-05-02 Thread Matt Palmer
Got my KSB2 to the point where I am running the BFO setup for LSB/USB,
i get all the way thru setting the LSB/BF!t frequency, I hit band- to
return to the BFO parameter display, but when i hit mode to change the
mode I am getting an info 230 message, and they K2 kicks me out of the
menu without saving the settings. Not sure where to go from here,
guidance would be appreciated.

Discovered my freq counter probe is intermittent, trying to fix, but
ordered a new one from elecraft just in case, guess i'll have to
shelve the k2 until the new one arrives.

Matt,

Check the crimp pins in the connector housing - that is the most common 
place for the probe to fail.  The pins must be inserted correctly into 
the housing and the small tabs must lock into the rectangular holes in 
the side of the housing.  If the wire has been inserted too far into the 
crimp pin, the contact will not work correctly and will be deformed the 
first time you plug it into the mating header.
