I don't work 80 meters very often but I just checked my K2/100 and I have the very same strong birdie. I never noticed this before and have had the radio for 4 years. Let us know what you find out. Russ, N3CO - Original Message - From: K2/100 S/N 838 [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Elecraft

Re: [Elecraft] K3 Microphone

Gary; I too have just been using a cheap computer mic with good results that I bought for $2. Just follow the directions as described by Brendan and you should be good to go. However, if you want PTT , you will have to use an external switch. 73, Russ N3CO - Original Message - From

Re: [Elecraft] OT: pwr rating of RG6, etc

The myths have been busted 30 years ago. I Recommend reading Walt Maxwell's Reflections or his series of articles in QST in the early 70's. Or you can just go to his website w2du.com and read the SWT Mythbuster in action. Russ, N3CO - Original Message - From: Peter Howson [EMAIL

Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft in ARRL 160

I didn't make the top ten but was #3 SOLP in MI section. Could only operate about 14 hours-getting too old to stay up all night. Russ, N3CO K2/100 #4016 - Original Message - From: J F [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Sent: Monday, April 30, 2007 8:36 AM Subject

Re: [Elecraft] Com port problem

Fred; I have been using a Zonet model ZUC3100 for over a year with my K2 and both a Compaq laptop and desktop with no problems. Used it in the 160M contest all weekend with N1MM logger. It's only a 1-port but I bought mine from Newegg.com for $9.99+ph. Russ, N3CO K1 2136 K2 4016

on the market. Why buy a 6N2 at $649, when an FT-817 could be had on the street for $50-$100 less? 73, Russ WB8ZCC Scott Richardson wrote: Perhaps a low powered 6m/2m CW/SSB with FM option rig would be a reasonable project? Something designed as a starting point for the VHF/UHF weak signal

Fw: [Elecraft] 10m Birdie

I never operate 10M but just checked my K2 with the KPA100 and found the same thing with a strong birdie at around 28262. The weird thing is that when I turned off the KPA100 (reducing power below 10W) the birdie at 28262 shifted up about 1kc and the birdie at 28019 shifted down about 500c. Russ
