I am the proud owner of K2 #4360. When I first put the unit together everything checked out smoothly and there were no issues. I have since added the KSB2, KIO2, KAT2, K160RX, KNB2, K60XV, and KAF2. No issues appeared to arise after adding the modules. I had to set the K2 aside for a month due to other commitments and upon returning to it about a month ago I noticed I had no power out on any band. A quick check and replacement of R50 solved this. Except now I noticed that on 20M thru 10M with a slight exception on 15M I still had no power out and also that even with max AF gain the signal from a connected N-gen was barely perceptible. 15M is a little different in that I can get a max power out of 1.5W on that band and receive is also a little better but not by much. On 160M thru 30M the rig functions perfectly fine. I have tried re-aligning the bandpass filters multiple times to see if that was were the problem was but could not resolve the issue. I have spent hours looking over the rf board with a magnifying glass and a dmm trying to find a fault or bad solder joint but haven't found anything. My knowledge in this area is limited and I feel like I've run into a brick wall with this issue. If there is anyone that has any suggestions I eagerly await them.
