I've only been licensed about three years but have
been building electronic kits and related hardware
since 1954. My intent is to build a K2/100 with most
of the bells and whistles but have been unable to find
specific answers to three questions.
1. How does the K2/100 key an RF amplifier (AL-811)?
I have a Heil footswitch with a second cable for
amplifier keying. But, would prefer to use keying
from the rig itself.
2. How is ALC sent from my RF amplifier back to the
K2/100? I've reviewed the K2/100 manuals and cannot
find how it is done. Maybe it really isn't needed.
3. How do I adapt my Heil Headset Pro and Goldline
microphones. They currently are used with an
IC-746pro by using a Heil adapter cable. They now go
thru a homebrew switchbox with the adapter cable
between the rig and switchbox.
I cannot see any other major problems. I've wound
baluns and view winding toroids a bit tedious but
there is nothing like "rolling your own." My
background includes professional soldering training
and experience. I have a scope, DVM and other minor
pieces of test equipment. Am I over looking any major
areas that need to be covered before starting?
Thank you for your response.
Jim, AB0UK
