Well, when setting up for SKN I did a dumb thing with my K2/100. My
rig for SKN is a 40m two-tube transmitter that puts out about 50
watts. Somehow, I ended up connecting it to the cable that leads to
the K2, instead of the one that leads to the antenna.
So, I ended up putting about 50 watts into the KAT100 antenna 1 lead.
Most of the time, the K2 was listening on antenna 2.
It took me a few minutes to figure out what I had done wrong.
Amazingly, the K2 appears to be fine, but I'll want to take it apart,
and the KAT100 and look for any damaged components.
Anyone have any advice on components to check in a K2/100 and KAT100
that have had RF fed down the wrong way?
I did end up with three contacts for SKN.
