Hi, Don. You may recall a couple of months ago I killed my KX1 by dropping a hot lead on the bare board. You suggested replacing the MPU and the first mixer NE602. I'm happy to report the rig has been resurrected and is working fine. Removing and cleaning the solder pads for the NE602 was not easy. I have not yet mastered the art of using soldering wick to remove solder from inside the hole.
I'm getting 2.8w on 20//30/40 with 12.5 volt battery. I have the 30m option, not the 3080 option. Would the Power Option swap of two resistors be recommended for the 30m board? I'm really not that excited about removing any more parts and cleaning soldering holes! If I got .5w, it hardly seems worth it. I'm going to FDIM this year and hope to celebrate the 4 days in may anniversary. Hope to see you there. -- 72, Clark WU4B QRPARCI #10815 SKCC #3892 Southeastern DX Club <http://www.sedxc.org> North Georgia QRP Club <http://www.nogaqrp.org> Kennehoochee Amateur Radio Club <http://www.w4bti.org> *"It is vain to do with more what can be done with less."* *Attributed to *William of Occam (1288 AD - 1348 AD) -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/Closing-the-Loop-on-My-Killed-KX1-tp7600726.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
