You could replace the crystal with a DDS vfo similar to the KX1, or you could USE the KX1.
I used my K2 as a VFO for my Drake 2-NT crystal controlled "Novice" rig. Worked very well, but tied up my K2. Now I use an AmQRP DDS-60 with a KD1JV controller and Jackson Harbor Keyall as a dedicated VFO for the little Drake. http://www.ke6us.com/boatanchors_drake.htm Eric KE6US www.ke6us.com SKCC 86 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 08, 2006 6:34 AM To: [email protected]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Elecraft] re: Nixie tube display for the K2 Way cool - Now I don't feel so bad. Along side my K1 build, I am working on an building a "Novice Special" 12 watt transmitter - think 70s qst - uses a 6c4 and a 5763 tube. After I get the base transmitter working, I want to replace the Crystal with a DDS vfo similar to the one in the KX1. All this came about when I was scrapping out an old Heathkit condenser checker with a green eye tube. the empty chassis screamed for such a project. Well - time to inventory my pocket protector now ;) -73s Pete Pete Axson WD4LST 17901 NE 18th Ave Citra, FL 32113 _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
