Stewart - Did you ground the shell of the mic connector on the K2? I
found that the r.f. feedback that I was getting was completely cured by
the suggested mod on the Elecraft web site.

Given a few hours free I decided to investigate a problem with RF feedback that
I had been getting with my K2.
Occasionally on 80m I had received reports that the TX audio was not 100% and
after backing everything off, things improved. It was only when I noticed that
on 40m I could provoke the RF feedback that I have gotten around to doing
something.
After checking the mic leads etc I decided that the RF was getting into the
input of the speech amp/compressor IC.
The cure was to fit a 1mH RF choke (out of the junk box) in series with C32.
This provided an immediate and complete cure. Hope this helps someone.
