I beg your pardon?
Before leaping to attack someone, perhaps you should consider whether
the inference you object to was intended by the author, or just the way
you read it?

I wonder if my K2 (Serial # 2424 with latest mods and software) is set up
correctly and would appreciate comments. Output power with CAL CURR set at 3.0
amps is as below. Increasing CAL CURR to 5 amps makes little difference. I
know that the K2 is basically a 10 watt rig and I get more on
Larry:
I haven't measured my K2 output power for a while, but I recall I can
get 10 Watts out on 10 meters and at least 15 on 80 meters when I'm
using a 13.8 volt power supply. A 12 volt gelcell doesn't allow for
full output, especially at the higher frequencies. If you are using

Larry,
The K2 is speced for 10 watts out on all bands with a 13.8 volt power
supply, and most are capable of about 12 watts on the higher bands (10/12
meters) and 15 watts on 17 meters and below. Recall that there is a menu
entry (secondary menu) that sets the power limit on 10 meters - it
Larry,
I wasn't aware of a menu entry limiting power. I have seen and used Hi
Cur for current monitoring/limiting. Can you tell me where the power
limiter (and what version of firmware you see it on, perhaps I am using an
earlier version.
Thanks

Tom,
If you have version 2.xx firmware, the 10 meter power limit setting will be
found in the secondary menu. Check the version 2.xx firmware documentation
for details.

Hi:
I could be wrong but I think that the power limiting on 10 meters is only
active for SSB or Digital modes and not CW.

Ken,
OK, I just checked the docs - you are correct. I do move it up when
checking for max power out because I also do a check on the SSB peaks - I
have done this so often when setting up K2s that it is simply routine for
me. It is not necessary for CW!!

Hi Joe:
I believe you said you preferred the K6XX design over KR5L, so my current
thinking is to build the K6XX version. I don't know why I want to build
the tuning indicator because I do alright with matching tones using the K2
SPOT function. Would you care to share why you haven't built
Hi Tom:
This sounds like a great addition to the K2. Is its purpose to indicate a
zero beat?
Actually, to indicate CLOSE TO ZERO BEAT...usually +/- 20 or so Hz.
Your post sounds as if there are already some CW tuning indicators out
there and that you have developed a way to incorporate
Hi Folks:
WOW! The response has been a bit overwhelming to my offer to send copies of
my draft set of docs for installing the KR5L or K6XX CW Tuning Indicators
into the K2, using the 10th LED of the S-Meter Bar Graph.
Rather than sending out individual copies of the PDF, I have now placed a

HELLO
When aligning the Bfo,sfor cw then cwr I
cant get the tones to stay the same I keep chasing
out of the band pass of the filters...
I am correct in thinking I should get the same tone
when switching from cw to cwr

Hi
I had a friend over a few weeks ago that is a captain for AA and flies 767's. I
was working on his K2 and doing the final tune up when he asked me how to zero
beat the sidetone. When I tuned up WWV and hit the sidetone button I told him
to listen for the wow-wow sound of the beat. Suddenly
Hello to all that I worked yesterday in the QRP Afield contest.
The K1 performed flawlessly in the field this Saturday.
The only regret was that 80m was not on the bandswitch.

I have a K1 with all options including the 40, 30, 20, and 15 meter four band
board (with blue trimmer caps) and also has a extra two band board set up for
80 and 17 meters. It includes the noise blanker, internal automatic antenna
tuner and internal battery option. It also includes the tilt
That's always my biggest regret! No 80 meters on the 4 band card!

| Hello to all that I worked yesterday in
A few days ago I posted an inquiry re: LDG tuners. I recieved very
favorable replies. I was delighted to find a like new AT-11MP at the Oxford,
AL hamfest this weekend at a very reasonable price. It appears to working
out quite well on my 80M inv vee fed with open wire line thru a 4:1
Thanks to all who replied to my query regarding the audio out of the K2 and
receiving SSTV transmissions. I'm still on the left side of the learning
curve, but all of your help has helped things go a lot smoother.
Hope to 'see' you on 14.230 soon.

Perry,
You should be able to achieve equal tones on both CW and CWr (well, within
20 Hz).
How are you doing the alignment? It is quite difficult and laborious if you
are using a single frequency signal to align the filters. The use of a
wideband noise generator and the Spectrogram display
This is the second K2/100 I have built, and I am selling this one so I can
build another. It is a very late serial number (42XX) with the following
options installed:
KSB2 SSB Option
K160RX 160 Meter Option
K60XV 60 Meter and XVTR Interface Option
KNB2Noise Blanker
KPA100 100 W. Amp
I have written to the original post off the list where I think this belongs.
There is no room for attacks here, takes up too much space and time for me.
Hope you guys can work this out... this is a hobby and we need to keep our
best feet forward... have you taken this up with Erik directly
Wow, great signals this evening. 20 meters was wide open across the North
American continent. I felt like a contester giving out 5NN over and
over. Only a few folks were not that strong. There was some QSB from the
East so Dan needed a relay through Bill to hear me. I could hear both of
25 matches
