Fred, I certainly can't help with your internet access - but perhaps I can help with your K2/100 problem. Go to the Elecraft website and find the K2 Optional Power Control Mod - or use the direct link http://www.elecraft.com/Apps/Power_Control_Mod.html.
If that does not help, you may have a problem with the KPA100 wattmeter section. 73, Don W3FPR Fred Jensen wrote: > I know this has been discussed in the past, but due to the storms here > on the US West Coast, our wireless access is down and I'm relegated to > ... gasp! ... dial-up, so surfing the archives is sort of a non-starter > right now.
