I have been working through the alignment prior to final assembly on my K2. Up through the receiver pre-alignment things seem ok. However, I seem to have some problems on the TX alignment on page 80.
To do this process I am using the integrated meter and the Elecraft Dummy Load. In addition, I do not have sufficient understanding to reason out things that do not seem to work as expected. I have done the procedure several times and it seems that I have to make bigger than expected changes each time. Here is what has happened: 1. Larger than expected changes; 2. BAND +/- skips band and have to manually tune to frequency or remains on same freq; 3. When aligning 17m adjusting c32/4 does not change power indication. Indication will flicker up or down by .1 watt. If anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it. Is there a way to get everything back to a "default" starting place and start over with the whole part III process? I am really hoping to get this resolved so I can do the final assembly and install all the accessories. I do not want to do that until I am relatively confident that the alignment is ok. Thanks in advance for the assistance.
