Second question. I am using my K2 and XV-144 as my EME rig. I take the output of the transverter key jack and feed it to my sequencer, which then sends the appropriately delayed signals to my amp ( 750 watts ) and my T/R relays and preamp at the tower.
My question is this: Can I slow down the transition from receive to transmit internal to the K2? Is there a menu option to do so? I could of course use the ptt signal from my computer to key my sequencer, and then have my sequencer key the K2, but what if I use the "tune" button on my front panel? That appears to be instantaneous. The last thing I want to do is wipe out a very expensive preamp or hot switch my relays with a 1 kW amp ( in the works ) Thanks in advance, Bob W1ICW P.S. I have rediscovered my K2 this year, as a high performance VHF rig ! K2s aren't just for QRP HF any more, I've made over 170 EME QSOs with my K2, XV-144, 600 watts, and a small ( by EME standards ) array of 16 dBd gain on 2 meters. Bravo to the Elecraft team for coming up with such a versatile product ! -- Sooner or later, buying crap you don't need with money you don't have grinds to a halt." Jeff A.
