Hello All - I ordered K2 #5329 in January, and was just able to start on it a few weeks ago. After a short break I'm back at it and this afternoon got to the Alignment and Test, Part II. All was well until I got to VCO Alignment on page 61. At first I was not able to adjust L30 and get the VCO voltage to 6.0 volts. All I could get was 7.99 volts. After reading the archives, I spread the turns on T5, and sure enough, I could get 6.0 volts at R30. But, it seems after adjusting, it drifts up slowly. So, I decided to go through the bands and see what I got. At 3500 Khz, it was a little low, and everything 7300 and above is at 7.99 volts. I've looked the board over again and again, and can't see anything wrong. Whenever I check R30 at 4000 KHz, it will be off 6.0 volts, when I adjust it back, it continues to drift, and everything above 7300 is pegged at 7.99 volts.
I hope someone has some suggestions, because I'm stumped. Thanks in advance, Steve - WD7M _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.
