Gregg,
The problem appears to have been a batch of 1.6 ohm metal film
resistors (R19,20) that had 6 turns and produced a weak 10MHz or
thereabouts trap with C80,81 (4700pF). I believe Elecraft have sourced
some resistors with lower inductance. For the Brits, locally obtained

Not exactly milliwatts, but close: Yesterday at lunch, I sat on a patio
at work in a valley surrounded by hills 100ft higher and a metal frame
building, and tied a 24ft wire from my KX1 to a treetop about straight
even with me. I tuned about and all I could hear was the building badge

Hello Mike
Interesting idea for your big panel controls.
My suggestions are separate selection and indicators for FIL1 through FIL4
and AF1 through AF4, R2 ON/OFF with indicator, a RIT control with zero
center
detent, TEST/CW/USB/LSB on separate buttons, ANT1/ANT2 a separate button
from the TUNE

I want to remove the KPA100 from my K2 and install it in the KAT100-2
enclosure. Since I will NOT be using any type of computer control, is it
still necessary to install a KIO2 in the K2 and beef up the handling
capacity of the RF choke?

DOH! - It all seems so obvious now - for one thing, I could not use my
existing control cable (without the KIO2) because the barefoot K2 has
no place to plug it in!
I now understand that:
(1) the KIO2 includes a new DB9 connector for the barefoot K2 rear
panel, and

There's a useful comparison of several portable antennas on the Hfpack site,
and includes the Miracle Whip and a number of others both commercial and
home-brew. Look for Portable Antenna Testing Events and Shootout Reports

Mike,
The reason is that for small 4:1 baluns, you need more turns of wire
on them to get the necessary inductance, more turns means a smaller
wire to fit, and a smaller wire means the impedance of the two wire
transmission line is not optimum for a 4:1 balun. You will have a
high SWR just
I received the K2VCOSHLDKT in the mail today. I just finished installing
it. All went well. I did not have to adjust the turn spacing to get the
voltages within range. Assembly was straight forward. I have my K2 sitting
on top of a speaker so I figured it wouldn't hurt to make the mod,
I have installed the VCO mod kit, and it works fine. I can now put my linear
power supply next to the K2 without AC getting into the transmitted signal. I
highly recommend this mod. BTW, this mod doesn't affect the passband or
frequency, therefore no CAL FIL or CAL PLL is necessary. Nice
The SOC sounds a lot like my anti-club club, the OLD
Flatland Amatuer Radio Transmitting Society. Read the

No trouble at all. I ordered the kit from Bruce Barlowe at The Science
Workshop.

It's definitely not an Elecraft kit, you'll have to pick buy your own
enclosure, power transformers, switches and front panel controls.
The schematics are all hand drawn with no
