[Elecraft] Audio Output

I have a question related to the audio signal of the K2. I have completed the base K2 and during stage 2 I was already concerned about the low audio output. I first thought that my headphone was to blame, a 16 ohm unit that is not able to transfer all the audio power from the amplifier but

Don W3FPR wrote Gerald, That certainly sounds like it might be hard to isolate. I may be wrong, but from the behavior it sounds like you have a relay with points that are not making good contact - when you put a bit of RF through it, it becomes OK for a while. Please be aware that this is

Re: [Elecraft] ROHS COMPLIANT?

If you know Wayne, you know he is a very environmentally responsible guy (Eric may be as well... we haven't talked about it). I can't imagine he would make that recommendation if it weren't absolutely necessary. With kits as complex as some of the Elecrafts are, there will inevitably be some

Re: [Elecraft] K-2 and digital question

To the original poster who could not even receive. The RigBlaster is not used during receive. The audio goes straight from the K2 (I use the ext speaker jack) to the Line IN jack on your sound card. Until you can properly receive PSK, SSTV, RTTY, etc, there is no point in connecting up the

[Elecraft] K2 no output

Finished my K2 a couple of days ago. At first TX output was allways full power. Adjustment via the front panel was not possible. Now the rig does not transmit at all but shows elecraft when hitting the key for a moment. Hard to do the rf-probing stuff with the transmitter out of action.

Re: [Elecraft] what DC connectors?

Hi everyone. To all who responded to my original query, thank you for the good advice. I purchased 20 pair (red and black) of the 30 amp version (1330) Anderson Power Pole, and have already begun converting all of my DC connections to the A.P.P. system. I am soldering them, and it works

Re: [Elecraft] K2 #5099 is on the air!

Dave, Welcome to Ham radio and the Elecraft group! It was delightful to read about your successful experiences -- building and getting on the air with your new K2! Yes, the journey is very enjoyable and rewarding. I would also suggest that you check out the FISTS CW club...

[Elecraft] ROHS COMPLIANT? Do you really care?

Hi all I think the RoHS issue has been flogged as much as it can be. I also think Elecrafts position is being confused a bit (as I understand it anyway). As far as I can see there is no claim that the kits are RoHS compliant. This blossomed from the price increase thread where I believe

RE: [Elecraft] K-2 and digital question

Phil and all, The Rigblaster is capable of controlling PTT from its serial port connection. I don't have a RigBlaster, but I just looked at the schematic and see that you must have P5 pin 1 jumpered to pin 10 (PSK31 programs control PTT with the RTS signal), and you must jumper P1:B pin 18 to
