Hi
Is there any article which describe details of building both KPA100
and KAT100-2 in a EC2 enclosue.
I hope to operate my K2 with this unit.
Thanks

Hello all
Yesterday I started building my third K2. This one obviously not for me
but for a friend who was very excited to own this little gem. I have
just built the control board and front panel board and hope to undertake
alignment and test part I this afternoon. Until now and like with the
Hello,
If you made a few contacts in this years TAC Sprint, please send me your
log.
I will figure out your score for you.
I will need your name, call, log, power out, radio used and QTH.
The deadline is July 12th for all entries. Check out www.n3epa.org for a
list of logs already

If this capacitor is to help with 80 Meters, what does it do to performance
if I don't have the band module that contains 80 installed?
True, C78 and RFC8 are normally included only with the 80m filter
The kit comes with a RIT Centering tool. It looks very similar to an allen
key g.
Center the rit (by ear), loosen the set-screw, align the index hash at 12
O'clock, and tighten the set-screw.

I want to calibrate my rit/xit on center again.

When I bought the raffle ticket a month ago it was just helping out a club.
I was already planning on buying a rig to replace a dying one (still got it
apart). I did, too, a Yaesu FT-920 that we used at FD for CW and which is
a very nice radio indeed. However... THAT radio had a 30 day warranty

The best hard case I found for a KX1 is a Pelican Microcase 1060...
tough case for sharp rig !!!

Dan and all,
There is a more certain method of centering the RIT than 'by ear'. Watch
the display while turning the RIT on and off, when the two frequencies
agree, it is centered.
You don't need to repeatedly turn RIT on and off to do that either - just
look at the frequency with RIT off and
I am experiencing a problem when trying to use TRN2 or TRN3. When I set the

Both my XV50 and XV144 work fine on TRN1
Any help is greatly appreciated

I just wanted to say that Pete will be missed. He was a great guy that I was
lucky to have known. He sold me his K2/100 and we continued to talk
afterwards. God Bless you Pete.

Just finished a K1 4-band transceiver kit. It receives on all 4 bands.
However it transmits on only 30, 20 and 15 meters. I'VE EASILY MADE A
NUMBER OF CONTACTS ON 20 AND 15 METERS.
For some reason I get the 0.1 power level 0n 40. CL and CM are 120 pfd
as specified.
Any ideas before I do a

K2 #4990 passed alignment ant test part I with no troubles. Will start

I broke your tuner!

W9CF wrote a fun little T-match simulator that gives you a front-panel view
of a tuner. You plug in the impedance you want to match and press Autotune,
and it'll find the match and give you the circuit loss. And you can spin the
dials manually and enjoy watching the SWR
The Elecraft Mini-Module DL1 Dummy Load has test points that allow you to
use a DMM to measure out put. I can't imagine anything in that price range
being more accurate

I am wondering if anyone is using Butternut Verticals (HF6V HF9V) for
their K2's at their home QTH and how effective have they been? Thanks

RC,
I have used them in the past, and found that if you really have a good
ground (highly conductive) or lots of radials per band, they are fairly
good.
Otherwise, much of your RF goes into heating the ground (good for the
worms, less good for your signal). If you can get plenty of

Jay,
I may have answered this already on QRP-L, but I find the most accurate way
to determine power output is to use a good 50 ohm resistive load (check it
with an antenna analyzer or use the Elecraft DL1). Measure the RF voltage
across the 50 ohm load (RF Probe reads in Vrms while a 'scope will
Hi RC,

The Butternut HF9V works great with the K2. First QSO was with a VK3 station
and then a JA3. That was last year around this time.

Jay, the Tek 492 will do the job IF you have an accurate way of
calibrating it and IF you know exactly the attenuation at all
frequencies of interest of the attenuator you will be using. I'm not
familiar with the '492... I have a 7L13, and on the 2dB scale the
divisions are .4dB.. which are
Chuck and all.
Can you tell me if you need to use an RF probe along with the DL-1, or is
the circuitry built into the DL-1 and you can just use the DMM probes?
Thanks.

Tom,
I believe I can answer that - the only thing you need with the DL1 is a DVM
and you can either use the formula or the graph from the manual to determine
the power.
In other words, yes the circuitry is built into the DL1, but a caution, you
will find the formula a bit different than the
I recently installed the KBT2 internal battery kit in my K2. I bought this kit
from a ham in Australia who had installed it in his K2 and later removed it.
Consequently, it had been all assembled prior to my receiving it. I had only to

I have a bunch of gel cells sitting around here that have been
subjected to stress like that and yeah, they go down in efficiency,
but I sure would not throw them out if they are working. I might not

useful.

Another two sessions of the Elecraft CW Net were run this evening. The

It is likely that you ddid not have the battery fully charged. What was the
voltage out of your power supply - a standard 13.8 volt supply will not
adequately charge the battery (see the Elecraft internal battery manual).
Before you give up on the battery, try putting a 14.3 volt power
Thanks to everyone who answered my questions on the Butternut HF6V
