Re: [Elecraft] K2 FOR SALE
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.

Re: [Elecraft] K3s Receive EQ
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. https://w2ihy.com/product-category/equalizers/ BTW, any audio EQ unit can be used for RX and/or TX audio EQ. Audio is audio. --- 73 de W3AB/GEO AFA9GB WA2LSI, KE6RJW, W7B, AAR9AG __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
