Does anyone know if the P3 Panadapter will work with the K2 transceiver?
It does, with a number of caveats:
- The K2 does not have an IF Out port. On my K2, I never installed the
no-antennatuner BNC connector; I modified the connector to use a small
coax cable (AWAY from the high RF output
Bill,
If you add the Clifton Labs Z2 buffer amplifier (now sold by DX
Engineering) to provide an IF output from the K2, it will work as a
spectrum display. It will not report the K2 VFO frequency as it does
with the K3.

The K2 doesn’t have an IF out, unless it has been modified. Without the IF out,
it won’t

Has anyone on this list used a P3 panadapter with the K2 transceiver? Is it
directly plug compatible or does it need a custom interface/cable and where can
that be obtained?

You'll need to add a buffer amp, at the very least, like this:

Normally this would be used with a softrock rather than a P3, so I haven't
really looked into what else might be required to integrate and make the K2
work with the P3.

It is not directly plug compatible, as there is no IF output port on a
stock K2. Even with a

Hi-
I have my Elecraft P3 for swap. I'd like to acquire a K2 which I think I will
get more use from than the P3. My operating doesn't include and contests or SSB
so many of the P3 features are lost on me.
