Re: [Elecraft] Modifying Wattmeter Slugs for QRP
Before you open it up, you might want to see if you can find some documentation on the Model 4410A multi-range meter. I have one, and it has switchable scales from 0-2W to 0-1000W using a single 4410-3 slug. It has an amplifier in it with precision dividers I think. Much of the Bird stuff is searchable in patent apps if you want to figure out how they did things. You might want to see what's inside this sensitive slug, as that's the key to the multiple scales. Larry N8LP Arthur Delibert wrote: I have a Bird wattmeter that I'd like to use with QRP rigs. As best I can tell, though, Bird did not make slugs smaller than 50 watts for the 2-30 MHz range. There is a website that discusses how to open a Bird slug and modify it for a different power level and/or frequency range. [http://www.hayseed.net/~jpk5lad/BIRD%20Slugs/birdslug1.htm] I'm wondering if anyone has tried to modify, say, a 2-30MHz/50-watt slug for 10 watts and if so, any experience to share? What was the right resistor value? How was the linearity of the meter with the modified slug? Thanks for any experience or insights.

[Elecraft] K1 Calibration Data Retention
There was a recent discussion on this list about a six-band limit on the number of bands (out of the nine HF bands which may be assigned) for which the K1 MPU would retain LCD frequency calibration data. Wayne has provided the following clarification: > The calibration table has one entry for each of the bands > from 160-10 m. You'd be able to maintain separate calibration > on all of your modules, on all bands. There is thus no need to worry about losing any band cal data should you come up with different filter board bands numbering more than six. 73, Mike / KK5F ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

RE: [Elecraft] K2 Digital Signals Mod
Mike, Pauli unfortunately is a silent key, but you want to consider an alternative, take a look at my webpage (http://w3fpr.qrpradio.com article on A Fixed Audio Output for the K2. If you take the audio out to a spare pin on the mic connector (pin 5 for the Elecraft configuration - remove the mic header jumper for the pin used), then all signals needed for an external digital modes box are present at the mic jack - audio out, mic AF in, and PTT. I might add that Pauli himself surprised me by ordering one of these boards claiming that it was an easier and more simple solution than his interface implementation. I recently mounted one of the Fixed Audio boards in a K2/100 - I laid the capacitors and the resistor down flat on the board and attached the wires to the board with no connectors, and the audio out plugs onto the mic configuration header. It fits nicely in the space between the control board and the front panel - and there is even a hole in the control board near the left mounting screw that can be used to attach the board. I will eventually update my webpage with this additional info, but I'm too busy right at the moment. I do have boards available at $3 per board plus $0.50 for 1st class mailing US domestically - $2 air mailed internationally), but no more kits - if you are interested in a board and documentation, email me direct (without '[Elecraft]' in the subject line), and I will supply my address (or look on QRZ.com). 73, Don W3FPR > -Original Message- > > I'm about to install my KSB2 and was looking at the modification > listed on the website that brings out the microphone jumpers and > signals necessary for digital modes via a ribbon cable and small > PC board.

Results are in: REPLACE. I got 3 replace, 2 test (but then replace anyway) and 1 test.

I'll go with option b). Shame the freight would be more than their value. I'd be happy to send the "good" ones to a new home, but with new ones at $16, there's not much way I can see to get them anywhere except local.

Re: Re: [Elecraft] K2 Digital Signals Mod
For a while I was using my K2 barefoot with a Rigblaster to run PSK31 on 10m for the PropNet PSK project. It was last summer when I was doing so and I noted several openings. I made a couple of local and a few other PSK31 QSOs with it on other bands prior to getting it hooked up for PropNetPSK. I hated to use the K2 for a dedicated project so I've since taken it offline and have been using it otherwise on lots of bands, mostly CW, but some SSB, all QRP and quite effectively. I tried using an HTX10 for a dedicated PropNetPSK rig, but the frequency stability and sensitivity leave a lot to be desired compared to the K2!

Re: [Elecraft] OT-SLA Battery advice
Hi I would try cycling them once or twice to assure they will meet specs. Connect each one to a variable power supply set for about 13.8-14.0 volts and let them charge until the current draw is just a few mA. Limit the maximum current with the power supplies current limiter or install a 2-5 ohm 10 watt resistor in series with the power supply and keep the maximum charge current below 1/3 of the amp hour capacity of the battery. For a 7 amp hour battery that would be 2.1 amps. After charging the battery then discharge it down to about 11 volts and see how long it takes. Multiply the time in hours by the current to get the amp hour capacity. This should be somewhere around the rating of the battery. You can use a old car headlight or a tail light as a load to discharge the battery. Do not allow the battery to discharge below 10 volts or you may damage it. A heavy load like a headlight will not give quite as much capacity as a lighter load like a tail light but you should get a feel for the condition of the battery with these tests. If the battery voltage falls off quickly under load or it will not take a charge then the battery is most likely shot and should be recycled.

Re: [Elecraft] K2 Digital Signals Mod
I'm about to install my KSB2 and was looking at the modification listed on the website that brings out the microphone jumpers and signals necessary for digital modes via a ribbon cable and small PC board. I've monitored this list for a while and have not seen much posted regarding the mod. __ Mike I use my K2 a lot on PSK31 and MFSK16 but but still use a RigBlaster Plus and have made no mods to the K2 for the digital modes. It would be nice to have it all in one box, but this way I can switch rigs very quickly. I also use an external speaker so I can monitor the received signals easily with the laptop soundcard connected.

[Elecraft] Spare Parts Mystery
How is it that every time a part comes up missing from one of my Elecraft parts bags, I happen to have the identical same part in my own spare parts supply? I simply lean over and sort through my spares, conveniently left lying about under the workbench, and voila! I think the mysterious Ms. Christine, Elecraft's "Lady of the Parts Room," must be psychic.

[Elecraft] K2 Digital Signals Mod
Greetings All, I'm about to install my KSB2 and was looking at the modification listed on the website that brings out the microphone jumpers and signals necessary for digital modes via a ribbon cable and small PC board. I've monitored this list for a while and have not seen much posted regarding the mod. Have many done this? Is the PCB available somewhere? (I was considering "deadbug style" construction) Thanks & 73 de Mike, N0SO K2 #4757 ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

[Elecraft] Re: Can rf interference get into a K2?
I kept the dialogues addressed to my rfi problem off the reflector because I thought them too OT. I was delighted with the ideas many of you suggested and will work my way through them. I have a tough problem with proximity of everything due to ham shack in small boat. I'm a bit sorry problem couldn't have been holes in k2 because that would have been much easier to fix than what I am going to have to do. Many thanks to you all for the help 73, John Ferguson KI4NGH ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.
