Sometimes (and there seems to be no predictability about this) the K2 does
not take kindly to too many commands sent in one go especially when a band
change is involved in the string.
To test your character strings in Hyperterminal use the paste buffer to send
the strings fast, rather

I owned one each of these rigs. Mixed with 5 MHz (or various multiples

Great pictures. It brings bank many fine memories of when I went through
the process with K2 sn 467 almost five years ago!
For me, building the K2 was just as much fun (and not nearly as dangerous)
as when I built a DX100 back in 1958. I was 15 years old then and not at

Hi Group,
I have recently completed the construction of this kit which is now under
test run. It has been well constructed and caliberated with spectogram. It
is my 6th K2. It includes the following options:
KSB2, KDSP2, KNB2, KBT2, K160RX
My price is USD1299 plus shipping costs. The sale

In 1959-1961 I was in the US Navy and stationed at NAS Norfolk, Va. I lived
in the ham shack of W4NPT and ran many phone patches on 20 meter SSB for
HZ1AB a US Air Force base in Saudi Arabia. Our SSB rig was a Central

I like my K1 just the way it is.
I usually park it on 14.062 and go about my business

I am ofter greated by a high pitched CQ, I tune down
to the correct freq but often do not had to tune at

K2 2330 experiences the same malady. Even a slight bump will cause this.

Hate to replace it and have the problem resurface.

AF pot gives plenty of volume with no scratchiness so no problem
My audio cuts out momentarily whenever I rotate the RF gain pot. I
suppose the RF gain pot is generating noise (dirty) and that
noise is
triggering the AGC. I do find that if I rapidly rotate the

Well folks the first log from the Eurasian ECN is in the books. The

Hi guys,
I am helping a friend trouble shoot a K1 that he just finished putting
together. This is a 2 band 40/20 meter K1. The 40 meter band is working
perfect with a full 7 watts output into a 50 ohm dummy load. The power
output can be adjusted up and down while in transmit on 40 meters. The 20

Hi David,
Store A B VFOs (start/end frequencies) in a memory (0-9) using STO.
You can start scan by cointinuing to hold STO until you see SCAN on
the LCD, or RCL the memory at anytime and hold until you see SCAN.
You'll also probably want to assign either PF1 or PF2 as scan resume.
