Hi Scott, Well, the BNC is soldered to the board and then just sticks out the back of the rig. Changing it to SO-239 would probably require enlarging the opening in the case and possibly moving the hole up. That may get in the way of options down the road.
It will probably be easier to build a pigtail cable for yourself. BNC on one end, PL259 on the other. Use a barrel connector to make it SO-239. The other path to SO-239 is with the KPA100. That baby uses SO-239. Hmmm, come to think of it, maybe you could put an SO-239 in the back edge of the top panel, same place it would be with the KPA100. A small coax jumper to the board and you just might be in business. - Keith N1AS - - K2 5411.SSB - -----Original Message----- Has anyone ever changed the antenna connector on the K2 to a SO239 instead of the bnc connector? _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
