Frank The K2 tuning experience is smooth, but a bit different. The K1 is continuous tuning with an LC oscillator. The K2 uses a sort of synthesizer, in that the tuning goes about 5 kHz then there is a "tick" as the internal works switches to the next 5 kHz range. For all practical purposes, it is continuous tuning. An advantage to the K2 tuning is that you can change the tuning rate from the front panel. Mine has three different tuning rates which I just love. 73, Bob N6WG

I guess, I mean ,is it smooth to use for hours of tuning the bands or is it similar to the k1? > Thank You > Frank Caputo > WA2AAW > _______________________________________________ > Elecraft mailing list > Post to: [email protected] > You must be a subscriber to post to the list. > Subscriber Info (Addr.
