Well after about a month, I almost have my KPA100 option finished for the K2. I didn't accurately time the hours, but I think it is in the 25 hour region. This is the first serious kit I've built in years and the most serious ever. I had only one mistake to correct. U7, the dual op amp, was reversed. Once that got replaced, the amp came to life. I have a couple of issues left, minor ones. 1. The power does seem to vary a little bit on key down, nothing major, but a few percent before the power level settles. The TUNE function indicates 1.5:1 SWR into a dummy load. Perhaps I need to go back and retweak the SWR setting. 2. The speaker sounds like the cone is bad. I ordered a bunch of parts from Elecraft, but the speaker slipped my mind. I will need to remove the shield if the speaker gets replaced. Does the adhesive comes loose easily? Thanks for all help from this reflector! 73, Steve N6VL _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
