It could be the problem I and some others had, where
there was a bit too much gain through the transmit
chain when the KPA-100 is installed for the ALC to
maintain control (in my case it was worst on 80m).
Here is a link to my problem solved post, which also
links to my original problem

Hello all,
Look for John, NU3E, and myself, WA3WSJ, operating from Eagles Nest
Shelter on the AT this weekend. We will hike in the 5.5 miles and setup
camp at the shelter. We'll be looking to make Qs from the AT in PA. Look
for us on 20m,30m and 40m. John may also work additional bands.

Another source of information is your dentist. Mine gave me some
references for purchasing glasses and/or clipons that had a longer
working distance than the 8 typical of the Optivisors. (Seems folks
don't like the dentist 8 from their face during exams.)

Waiting by the door right now for FedEx with my new kit from Larry N8LP.
Got the soldering iron ready and bench cleared to start the build. I am
going to document the entire build and post pictures over on the HRD website
and forward some to the Elecraft site with it integrated to my K2 and
Congratulations, Darrell. Even thought the number itself is only
symbolic, we have high hopes for your K2 :)

Most mag lights are only 3 diopter (1.75 power).
The 5 diopter (2.25X) lights help when you need more magnification.
Here is a source for a rectangular lens version.

I am one of those dentists. I have my surgical lens from Orascoptic

Info ... the Optivisors (SP) come in several levels of magnification.
Check the Ott-Lite product line that's available at sewing-
related stores. They have a number of models, including one
table model that has a swing-away magnifier and several floor
models as well

All,
Wx not looking exactly friendly for the FYBO and PB events here in MO. But
I'll will spend a few hours on the local trails with my /PM setup which
includes my modified case KX1 pumping out 4 watts and backpack mounted hustler
whips. Twenty meters will probably be my best band and I hope
Or you can build one :O)
I built this little gadget about a year ago. I use it for close work.
I modified a pair of $10 binoculars.
I can either use it with head gear or on a stand. It has 8X
magnifications making objects large and crystal clear.
I mainly use this for SMD devices but could

Do itworst QST can do is reject it, but I'd think it will be
published. If not by QST, maybe on the Elecraft website?

Much obliged. I tried the mod you addressed and that has settled

when running lower (25W), but not as bad and I don't really care
since the KPA-100 has plenty
of headroom down there. I used the 1K and 3.3K values on the

Hello everyone!
Just wanted to report that my first QSO with my new KX1 took place a few
minutes ago. The KX1 with the antenna tuner and 30/80m modules was a
Christmas present from my XYL, Ede. Isn't she a sweet lady to think so
much of me to get me another Elecraft kit! She got input from
FB Mark!
Don't forget, if your fingers get stiff or the bands get too punk to
operate, you can always SWL the BC stations with it!
When you add the 30/80 module, it'll get a lot hotter receiving the 49 meter
SWL band too. That module resonates the input circuit a little better to
cover to
So I've been debugging as I get time my recently finished K2, and trying
to find out why it's got no output.
Tonight I traced all of the DC voltage points in the troubleshooting
guide, and found two anomolies, both of which are connected to one
another.
On pin 7 of U4, and also pin 1 of U5, I
