That's what I figured... or something confusing the power meter into thinking it's kicking out far more than it really is (EG set to 5W, it pretends it's producing about 7W, but is actually producing about 1W according to DL1+DMM) > If you have not already, build up the RF Probe that came with the K2 kit and done > do the Transmitter Signal Tracing steps detailed in the Troubleshooting > Appendix of the K2 manual. That seems to involve testing RX first, because of the shared circuitry, which unfortunately seems to require 0.14V from a signal generator, and my only signal generator is the Elecraft XG1, producing 50uV. :-( Is it possible/sensible to test the shared circuits the other way 'round, whilst transmitting into DL1? -- "Nosey" Nick Waterman, G7RZQ, k2 #5209. #include <stddisclaimer> [EMAIL PROTECTED] Corduroy pillows: They're making headlines! _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
