You are not adjusting for the peak, you are adjusting for the maximum
signal/noise. It does not occur at the peak signal. Unless you are using
Spectrogram or some such, it is a trick to do by ear.
That said, if your best S/N is at the top, I haven't a clue if you have a
problemg.

Are we speaking of the same L34? Mine peaked at nearly the top,
not a turn or so from the top. As I remember I was peaking for the
loudness of the noise; nary a signal around.

I've seen several posts about CW tuning indicators. Is
there a site where info on this is available (kits,
pre-built units, etc)? Also, curious if they might be
of use with a mode such as PSK31?
TIA.

Waiting for K2 #5601 to arrive.
I bought the board from Tom Hammond (N0SS). Tom also provides a parts
list, assembly instructions, pictures, etc. as well as encouragement
and advice.
Check out his web site, it offers a wealth of info for HAMs in general
and Elecrafters in particular.

K2 Colleagues,
My boat-board (alas, 36 feet does not make a ship) K2/100 with KAT100
gives me info80 displays on chilly damp mornings. It will step through
the bands but it takes two taps to do it, one to change the band and
then another to get rid of info80 and get the frequency display.

John,
You are evidently storing the K2 in an 'extreme' environment and it may be
picking up condensation as you surmised in your subject line.
Yes, in your case, I would think you may be wise to clean off the flux
residue, but work with a Q-tip and work a small area at a time.
On replacing the
The 'peak' on L34 is very broad and difficult to discern. It ideally should
be adjusted for the best signal to noise ratio.
If you use the 7000 KHz 'birdie' (no antenna connected), you can usually
hear the signal peak especially if you listen for the noise to minimize. A

Check the board carefully for any solder bridges or near solder bridges in
the vicinity of J3, C33, R17, pin 24 of U1 and pin 5 of RP1.
If you have a lot of flux residue at any of the above points, scrape it away
and see if the problem is still present. Often bits of metal can become
Hi Folks:
While I do still offer bard SMT PC boards for this project (and the
docs are still available at www.n0ss.net), I no longer offer parts.
However, Ed Berneiser, WA3WSJ, is (I believe) still offering complete
kits of parts for this device, and Ed is using my PC boards.

I also found this procedure slightly confusing when I was going through it
yesterday. The manual tells you to use a DMM to measure AC volts in the speaker
out socket as an alternative to by ear assessment. I could measure the audio
volts out ok but it did not tell me anything about the signal
