I do not know how many of the reflector's subscribers have visited Tom's web-site. I have visited it before but after this exchange I spent an hour on it today reading all of the instructional files. This is an incredible resource. Strongly recommend all to visit (or even re-visit if its been a while)!
Thanks Tom! 73 de Neal k3nc -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom Hammond Sent: Tuesday, October 04, 2005 9:26 PM To: Rick Dettinger; [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] RE:split indicator for K2 Hi Rick: IF you attempt this (though I suspect you're kidding), be aware that the LED specified for the SPLIT/RIT indicator is a Hi-Eff (e.g. very low current) device. If you (or anyone else) use a regular LED, you will have to add a driver transistor in order to allow the LED to draw more current. The Hi-Eff LED only draws 2 mA of current in the present circuit design. Have fun, kidding or not.
