According to that I have still for sale KSB2 (ssb module) and KNB2 (noise

for K2. Its in perfect condition, already assembled and aligned of course and
ready to plug and play in any of K2.

Have made it to the first Alignment on the K2 and am

Sorry for the confusion. Ron Is correct. I just had a mental lapse there.

I hear N5PHT on 40M most mornings near sunrise during my commute here on

Julius,
Check the thermistor board VERY carefully for solder bridges. As a quick
sanity check on the health of the thermistor board, measure the voltage at
RF board U6 pin 4 - if is not close to 4 volts, you can be certian there is
a thermistor board problem. Note: that does not fully check out

Hiyas all,
Looking to expand the K a little bit more, and pretty much the only
thing that would still fit is the DI addon, by Paulí EA3BLQ (SK).
Does anyone still have some his boards available, either just the
boards, in kit or finished forms?
Thanks and 73,
Fred

I have built more than 145 K2's to date, and all of the other Elecraft
products. Let me build one for you. I can also build any of the internal K2
modules and let you install it in your K2. My prices are reasonable and you
receive a unit ready to play.

There has been a lot of discussion and confusion on the Elecraft list
regarding the European RoHS (Reduction of Hazardous Substances)
regulations, if hobbyist builders were allowed to use regular lead based
solder and if they were regulated at all by these rules. I'd like to
clarify these
Thanks for the clarification on the warranty comment, Eric.

And I'm likely to go on a DXpedition with many K2's, which means the

Hello,
40 Meters is open into Europe.
This surprised me.
I needed some fiddly bits for this weekend's net. Drove to HRO in
Portland and wandered about a bit. Asked a few questions about this and
that and joshed them a bit about things. Got quite a number of answers
and then the biggie.
