FWIW, I have been using Heil Pro 7 headphones successfully for years. I use cw 
95% of the time, including during quite a few enjoyable CWT events. I only 
occassionally use the mic and ssb mode. I own several pair that I use with 
their specific radios. I use them on my Elecraft K2, and KX2, my Yaesu 
FTDX3000D, and my LNR Mountaintopper 3, 4, and 5b transceivers.  I never have 
the slightest RF or feedback.  They are well worth buying and using.  I highly 
recommend them.  The radios without ssb, I don’t use the mic or mic plug but 
instead I keep it secured out of the way.

[Elecraft] KX2 - speaker relays ssb transmission???

2017-08-05 Thread sniels...@nc.rr.com
When I key my MH3 mic (on KX2) the radio keys, but also my speaker sends out my 
voice too.  I hear myself, loud, as I am transmitting.  What setting do I 
change to stop the transmission that I send, from come through the speaker too?

[Elecraft] K2 has occasional snap, crackle, & pop

2016-09-24 Thread sniels...@nc.rr.com
Hi,  My K2/10 has an occasional bout with popping static that comes on for a 
minute or so, attenuates the receive signal while it is happening, then goes 
away.  Might come back again in a couple minutes, or not.  Was wondering if 
anyone has chased down a problem like this in theirs.  Radio was recently 
looked at, configured and aligned.  Didn't have any problems after it's 
checkup, until a few days later.  Radio has kat2, knb2, kio2, k160RX, ksb2, and 
kaf2 options installed. It did have the kbt2 installed, but I felt it was in 
the way, so I removed it before the last time it went in for a check up. The 
cure is to turn off radio, wait a few seconds, turn on again.  Does not matter 
the power setting or band or filters engaged, will still happen.  Steve/KI4EZL

Thank you,

Steve

[Elecraft] K2 & HiCur message on 160 - 15, 12 & 10 OK.

2016-09-05 Thread sniels...@nc.rr.com
I have a K2 that just returned from a full going over, config, and realign.

I am getting the HiCur warning real quick when I key it up.  40 through 15 
meters will produce the message when the power setting is adjusted to 6.7 or 
higher.  On 160 and 80 the error kicks in at 5.3.  Lower power than that will 
not produce the message in same bands.  Bands 12 & 10 meters do not produce the 
error.

I pressed display button until voltage showed.  Pressed tune, voltage dropped 
from 13.00 to 12.4.  Repeated same test, has same results.  The power cable is 
the same on that came from Elecraft.  I checked Cal Curr in menu.  It was set 
to 4.0.  I turned up to 4.5 and tried CW (letter E) again, resulting in same 
message "HiCur" at same places.  Turned Cal Curr setting to 3.5, and tried 
again.  Same results at same place.  

Radio is the 15 watt model that was built in upper 3000 serial numbers.  It has 
all the updates and latest firmware installed.  Also has the following options 
installed: KSB2, K160RX, KNB2, KAF2, KIO2, KAT2,  & KBT2.

Power Supply is 30 amp Astron.  Weighs about 35 or 40 pounds (it seems), and 
nothing else is connected to the PS except K2.

The antenna is an UltiMax end fed, 33' vertical wire.

Everything else seems to work flawlessly.

What else should I check to clear this HiCur error?

Thank You and 73,  Steve
