Hi folks,

Had lots of fun with my Elecraft gear this weekend. Only one thing caught
me by surprise, that I figured was worth telling others about: The mini
banana jack ground on the KX2 doesn't seem to be compatible with the
mini-banana jacks and plugs sold by Pomona (e.g. #3296, #2945); the Pomona
diameter is larger.

This surprised me, because the KX1 documentation refers to the Pomona jacks
and plugs as "mini-banana", so I assumed I would just be able to plug my
wire antennas, which run to Pomona mini-banana jacks, into the ground port,
but that didn't work. As far as I know, only the KX2GNDPLUG sold by
Elecraft will fit that jack.

Not a big deal, just thought this might be useful to people ordering a KX2.

Bruce
