Hi! I got to test and alignment part 2 last friday. Everything went according to the test procedure. 40 m RX worked well and I spent some time well into saturday night listening band with wire hanging from my balcony. It was quite amazing to hear stations with something I put together myself. Thanks to the great instruction manual!
In sunday assembly part 3 was finished and I went on with test and alignment part 3. When I set 2 W and hit TUNE the power displayed stays 0.2-0.3 No change when adjusting L1 and L2. There is quite good peak when adjusting for RX, so I believe BPF is OK. I have been looking for bad solder joints in transformers and LPF. Already did again 40 m LPF toroids. There is some attenuation in the middle on 40 m lpf (crossing of L25, L26, C226, C228 and C229) when doing cheap and dirty signal tracing. Is it normal or may I have some problem there? Bad cap? All bands RX seem to be ok, but same power problem on all. I will check all parts once again and do voltage checks as per troubleshooting. Any other ideas? I don't have access to test equipment, only DMM, XG1 and N-gen. I sent e-mail to Elecraft support already, so I believe I get information from there too. 73 de Jukka OH4MFA K2 #4293 Jukka O.
