The replacement L1 arrived today! For everyone reading, the problem
turned out to be a small sliver of wire jammed underneath pins 3 and 5
of the AUX2 PCBoard. It was actually under the plastic part of the
connector that plugs onto the K2 control board. I broke L1 in the
process of discovering this.
Today I soldered in the new L1, booted up the computer and and tried
out the software: "K2 not detected" read the message. "Oh no.. what
now?" I thought.. I looked down - The cable wasn't plugged in yet to
the back of my K2. In all my excitement to solve the problem I kinda
missed that, whoops..
I plugged the cable in, started the software up and voila!! I see on
the screen what my k2 has on display! Clicking up/down band on the
computer I hear the relays change - music to my ears... my KIO2 WORKS!!
Thanks to Gary AB7MY at elecraft support and Don W3FPR for all your
help!
