This is great information, guys, thanks. I expect that a LOT of 10W K2 owners will be adding KPA100 stages, in anticipation of the forthcoming QRO amplifier. One or two or three I know, in particular!
By the way: my K2 #0771 has now passed 35,000 hours of 'on' time. That's not a typo: 35k+ hours. It has been running essentially non-stop (no notable power-off time, except for trips to and from Field Day sites, and for occasional bench time spent doing upgrades) since January 2002. And - it had plenty of 'on' time before that, just not continuously. The power configuration is with the IF amp current control 'on' and with the S meter in 'bar' mode. Try doing THAT with another radio! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
