All, Because my K2 is on the bench at the moment - in pieces - I fired up the Radio Shack HTX-10 which was in the closet and went mobile with the 102" stainless steel whip this early evening. Had a near QSO with a NC station, and heard lots of 4-land beacons around 7:30 PM local. Not a wide open band, but enough to get my 10-meter juices flowing.
Now I know that using a RS rig instead of a K2 is kind of like renting a Yugo when the Mercedes is in the shop but hey - one must work with what one has at any given time :) While I am writing this e-mail - does anyone have info on in-circuit testing the suspect headphone jack of my K2 with a multimeter before I go ahead and do the desoldering job? (I am getting no audio out of the internal speaker even though the speaker tests OK so I suspect the headphone jack) Joel NF9K Hartland, WI (near Milwaukee) --- wayne burdick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hearing lots of beacons on 10 meters.
