Hello group,

Its been a Elecraft month, first the KX1 and now I just finished up the K1. After three evenings of effort I was able to complete K1 serial #02341 last night and go through the testing procedure. All went quite well, but I have a few questions, perhaps some of your other K1ers can help?

1) The front panel "offset" pot alters the RX frequency even when RIT is off. With the RIT off, turning the pot causes the displayed freq. changes, and does the same thing with the RIT is engaged as well.
Is this normal, or do I have a problem here?

2) What are your thoughts on the battery option offered by Elecraft?

3) Is there a small bail or support that anyone has used to raise the front of the RX up a bit? Mine is now sitting on a roll of solder, but some type of flip down bail would be ideal

4) Noise blanker, how well does it work? I built mine last night and installed it, not quite as a severe as I expected. I understand an LED can be used in place of one of the caps, can someone speak to the difference this makes?

Thanks for your help!
