yes yes yes.......
Hi Mike,
at this VERY moment I am using my k2/100 with my icom 756pro trying to get
the VU4.. ( rare dx)...
the K2 noise blanker helps me more decipher the esp weak signals from the
VU4 on 20 meters. I have not established a very decent way to mute the k2
when transmitting....other than use the K2 second receive antenna input
( on the k160rx) and transmit into a dummy load at the same time as I let
loose the KW on the 756....into a different antenna.
The other missing element is that I cannot receive on my better antenna as
it is
150 feet closer to the offending power line poles !!!! So I am transmitting
with the big beam and listening on my old classic 33 with the K2.
I have fitted my 756 pro with a tap just after the t/r relays, so I an
share the antenna selected, however as I mentioned I can't even use that
function, since that antenna is different for each rig !!!
now just waiting for propagation to open up in the midwest RF BLACK HOLE.
I briefly tried to use the test mode to disengage the TX , but that seems
to function in cw only. Better ideas are welcomed....

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone is using the K2 just for the receiver and using
some other transmitter with it in a transceive mode. Most of us probably
(had or ) still have one of the big 4 name transceivers and I was thinking
about using the K2 in conjunction with another radio to take advantage of
the 100W power or AM mode.
Your thoughts are appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
