Hi Adi,
When I take a look at

would seem to indicate that the transverter was from

Hello everyone:
Came home from work and found that my new K2 had been delivered by UPS.
Thanks for all the encouragement I have received so far because I probably
would never have ordered it if it had not been for the cool folks here.

Hi Gus,
Thanks for the offer. I built the programm rather quickly at the time,
and am aware of the weaknesses of some of the methods used. If I do a
proper rewrite, then I would consider going to .NET, especially now
that Mono http://www.go-mono.com/ and DotGNU http://dotgnu.org/ are

Saw the 100W torture test. How long did it last before it fried?
We didn't key down long enough to fry it. 10 or 20 seconds gets the
transformers really warm, and they will require about that long to
recover before you can do further

Yes. You can connect it directly to the ATU using a binding-post
adapter, or just wire up a PL-259's center pin to an alligator clip or

Hi Adi,
There must be something wrong with your K2 or measurement set up. As can be seen
from the phase noise plot on our web page (under radio comparisons) the K2 TX
signal is better than -130 dBc when you get 10-20 kHz away from the carrier.
Also, what b/w and span were you using on your

If you search for Elecraft on eBay you'll see a person offering (a
regular item), a kit that consists of two binding posts connected
to a BNC for easy connection of long wire to the K2. The kit also
includes wire for an antenna and counterpoise, plus a large Hex Nut
and line to toss over
Just a little reminder that ECN/30 will be held this evening.

I need to calibrate the reference oscillator in my K2.
Don't have any test equipment so I'll need to do it
against WWV at 10 MHZ using the N6KR method.
I'm a little confused as to how to zero beat the WWV
carrier as it instructs me to. The instructions say
to zero beat the carrier precisely, or
Ben,
I believe you may be misinterpreting what is meant by 'zero-beat'. What it
really means is to place the transmit frequency at the same place as the
signal that you are receiving. More details on just how to accomplish that
in a transceiver when you are moving both the transmit and receive
The Elecraft Web site indicates its a simple operation to switch from the 2
band to 4 band boards, to give you all 6 bands.
How many people really do this ?

board, it sure doesn't look that easy, mine has the antenna
This is something you probably already knew.
The manual for the K2ATOBKT conversion kit which can be found at:
http://www.elecraft.com/manual/k2a2binstr.pdf
has a couple of pretty neat charts on pages 2 and 3. The purpose of these
charts is to manually record all of your firmware settings
Hello,
I recently purchased a k2 wth kaf2, ksb2 and knb2. Well, it seems good
except I cannot get any transmit drive on ssb. It easily puts out 10
watts in cw on all bands, but barely goes 500 mw on ssb. I tried all
the settings for ssba and ssbc and still no change. I ran the voltage

I think that the ':sh:' entry takes care of this??? Maybe he

complicated. Printing under Linux used to be pretty easy.

If the tone pitch change is 20 Hz or less it is because of the quantizing
