Martin ,for the bad results of K2+Transverter probably both of them
contributed.
My first try with transverter+K2 was in Marconi CW contest (November
2004).Before that i used FT1KMP and Javornik transverter.
Other stations told me, that i was very noisy over a whole 2m band while on
TX.

Hi all,
#4044 has died. It simply stopped working during the ARRL contest last
weekend. It does not receive, transmit or speak to the PC. I have
tried a full reset to no avail and I have removed the PA. The fault
seems to lie on the rf board somewhere and I would appreciate some
pointers. I
David, I replied to this once but didn't see it show up so if it shows up
twice, I apologize.
I would disagree with you on your suggestion.
One of the things that makes contesting a little easier (sometimes) is that the
exchanges are publishes, so you know what to expect next.
How many times

Ian,
It is difficult to say where the problem might be when all I really know is
'it is broken'.
The best place to start is to determine what does work. Do you have
voltages anywhere (check input and output of the regulators on the control
board)? Are the voltage readings good (compare with

The K2 sees the additional boards etc so it would seem that DC power

ok, getting there. I decided as I had already done a reset that I would

Someone once wisely suggested picking a non-cardinal frequency for the ECN -
and I think I really need to heed that advice next week - so watch for an odd
frequency (e.g. 10118.7) for the net next week.
Running QRP-10W has it's disadvantages - especially when a DX station

Well, I agree that my suggestion to use the short-hand response is
not that good, but not for the reason you give. Wayne correctly
pointed out that it would confuse informal participants, and I think
that is true. However, your concern does not really have force. Since

Hello Dwight,
The External PA Key jack does not source current to drive a relay;
rather, it sinks current from the relay, so you essentially connect your
relay between the +12 volt source and the External PA Key jack. So, if
what you're asking, is how to connect an external relay with a 12
I read this reflector via AC6RM's excellent online service.
Is there an option to cut out most of the various List... headers so I
don't have to scroll down the page for each message to see the actual text.

Hi Martin,
I don't use samba much so I'm not positive what the problem is, but do a
man lpoptions if you're using CUPS to manage your print services. It
sounds like you might want to do something like lpoptions -o

Hi Lee,
Something that I have used in the pass was a PL259
fitted with a 6-32 (I think that was the size) brass
threaded rod or a long screw with the head removed.
Solder it to the center pin, close off the ground
holes with tape and fill the body with epoxy. This
leaves you with a threaded

If the tone pitch change is 20 Hz or less it is because of the quantizing
error in the K2 and nothing can be done about it. The K2 firmware works to
preserve the pitch no matter where the filters are set as long as the signal

It looks like your RBW is way too high, which will increase the apparent
noise level by a large amount. It should be set to 100 Hz also. Set your
sweep to auto so it will go slowly enough to make the measurement. It
will take some time for the sweep.
