5601 arrived today at 1830 UTC 20Jul2006, a day earlier than UPS estimated, and is alive and well. Looks absolutely great.
So far have only tested the KIO2, communicated with HamRadioDeluxe FB. I noticed there's a small hole on the back labeled GND, but nothing coming out of it to attach a ground wire to. Appears you need the internal ATU to get the GND binding post. How do those of you w/o the internal ATU ground the rig? My 1st thought would be to use an appropriately sized screw, with lock washer and nut, making sure to scrape off paint to get a good ground, then screw on a wingnut. But do I need to connect a wire from the screw on the inside to a circuit board, and if so which one and where? Will be giving the rig a thorough test in the next few days. 72 de N8PVZ ---bernie __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
