Indeed, but since I did build it I think it's only fitting that I personally spark it :) I hadn't had the cover off the K2 in years, so I forgot where the plugs go. I am planning on adding the KPA100 soon, so that solve that problem. Thanks,
Jim

You could always send it in and have Elecraft repair it to avoid further “sparking” J

Subject: [Elecraft] Aux AF Jack
Hello
all,
I accidentally plugged my internal battery into the AUX AF jack instead of the
AUX +12 jack. You can imagine what happened. I fried the firmware,
which was okay because it needed to be replaced anyway. Now that the new
firmware is in, the receiver is deaf. I traced that problem to U11 on the
RF Board (Detector). There is no signal going to the BFO, and pin 6 is 'microphonic'.
The signal from the IF Amp/Filter seems to be fine, and all of the DC voltages
on the pins of the NE602 are to spec.
I do not have much experience repairing my K2. Are there any 'gotchas' I
should know about with regard to the detector/bfo interface? I only want
to take the thing apart once if I can help it.....they don't call me sparky for
nothin'.
Thanks,
Jim
