The K2 is no more sensitive the RF hash from a power supply (or other noise producing devices) than other radios.
BUT - since the K2 is more sensitive, and can receive lower level signals of any kind, yes it will hear even weaker RF signals - and if the RF hash from a power supply can reach your antenna system, it will be received just like any other signal. A lot does depend on your antenna system - which includes the feedline right down to the transceiver. If your feedline picks up radiation that is generated in the hamshack, any transceiver will receive it just like a signal. The cure is to install a proper feedline that does not radiate (if it does not radiate, it will also not pick up signals) - a proper antenna system will ideally receive only signals that appear at the antenna. Unfortunately, not all antenna systems are perfect in that regard. 73, Don W3FPR > -----Original Message----- > > Hi, I was just wondering if the K2 (and other Elecraft rigs) are > sensitive to hash from the newer switching type supplies? > > -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
