Re: [Elecraft] K2 FOR SALE

2023-10-12 Thread W3AB/GEO

Serial # 066XX
This serial number is new enough to have all the factory mods.

INSTALLED
KSB2 – SSB Module
K160RX - 160M RX Module
KNB2 - Noise Blanker Module
KBT2 – Internal Battery Assembly W/Battery
KIO2 – AUX I/O Module
KDSP2 – Internal DSP Filter and Real-Time Clock Module
MC-43S - Microphone
LCD Backlight

INCLUDED, NOT INSTALLED
Rare aftermarket Miscellaneous Accessory Board, MAB, PCB, assembled.
http://genebitsystems.com/david/K2MiscAccessoryBoard/index.htm

No internal antenna tuner because I can see no reason to "Tune" a length 
of coax that doesn't RX/TX along it's length. I either used resonant 
antennas or a tuner placed  at the antenna feedpoint. But, should you 
desire, that module is still available via Elecraft. No 100W module 
either.


It has had a couple of repairs by W8FGU for prior owners. Paperwork 
included. Works as designed by Team Elecraft.

https://w8fgu.com/index.htmlElecraft.

All paper docs and a CD full of things K2 related.

You can not build this K2 today. Elecraft has discontinued many of the 
modules. If you could, it would set you back $2200.00+ USD.


Pix & price upon request. Selling because it doesn't fit my requirements 
for SOTA & POTA, too big.


Please reply if seriously interested off list to w...@w3ab.org

Re: [Elecraft] K3s Receive EQ

2023-06-26 Thread W3AB/GEO
Jim, K9YC, pointed out the work AT7T labs did to improve intelligibility 
over the phone lines. Fletcher & Munson did quite a bit of research into 
this for the military for the same reason. Interesting reads.


Setting your radio RX EQ to reflect this would be a good start, if you 
can.


A good product line at a good price. Used his products in the past. Very 
satisfied.

BTW, any audio EQ unit can be used for RX and/or TX audio EQ. Audio is 
audio.

I don't have one but I do have access to one. It is making UPS rich

I fly stunt kites and had a need for keeping the lines untangled, easy 
to to take up and pay out. We use plastic hoops or a new one, to me, 
called a Yoyo by Shanti kits.

Of course I have a 40M dipole wound on one for portable use.
