[Elecraft] K2 #4595 - Almost Dead

I forgot to power down my K2 last night before I went to bed. Well this morning I noticed the display was blank and no audio was coming from the speakers. The only sign of life is a slight pop from the speaker when powering the K2 back to ON with either the external supply or the internal battery.

Re: [Elecraft] K2 #4595 - Almost Dead

Ed, You will have to open the cover and make some measurements before we can comment further, but about all we can say right now is that you have a problem somewhere in the power supply circuits or the voltage regulators. Do some DC voltage measurements as indicated in the troubleshooting

RE: [Elecraft] K2 #4595 - Almost Dead

Don't forget to shut off the back panel switch like I didn't. Sounds like the battery didn't get power from the outboard supply to recharge it. Been there done that. Bill K9YEQ -Original Message- ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to:

[Elecraft] Mobile K2/100? with detached control head??

I am considering modifying my K2/100 for mobile operation. Ideally, I would detach the front panel and control board and mount them in the dash or near the driver with the remaining transceiver pieces in the rear of my SUV in a modified EC2. The SUV radio/CD player has an auxiliary input, so I

[Elecraft] K3/10 and 100

I'm sure this has been asked and answered before, so please forgive me if this is redundant. If I were to purchase a factory-built K3/10 would I be able to buy and add the 100 watt amp later (add it myself, that is)? Thanks Tom WB2QDG K2 #1103 (and pretty happy with it)

Re: [Elecraft] K3/10 and 100

Tom, Yes, all the options, including the KPA3, are user installable. After installation you will have to go to one of the CONFIG menu options to actually activate the option. Thanks. - 73, Greg - AB7R Whidbey Island WA NA-065 On Mon Jul 2 12:30 , Tom McCulloch

Re: [Elecraft] Mobile K2/100? with detached control head??

Typically in audio applications you don't worry about impedance matching, an aux input is typically a high Z (think input stage of op amps or similar) and they are expecting a low output impedance from whatever you are feeding it with. You should feed an aux input with line level audio. Matt

Well Bill, remember that word ASSUME? If you ASSUME you make an ASS out of U and ME? After Don's reply I checked thebattery switch and then started doing voltage checks and couldn't get voltage anywhere. I put the top back on and again and hit the power switch and I could get a slight pop sound

[Elecraft] CW speed clabration

Does the K2 have an adjustment to correctly set the cw speed? If it does I can't seem to find it. When I set the CW speed on mine on 20 wpm it actually sends about 25 to 27 wpm. I realize that you can slow this down by more spacing between the letters, but it would be nice if it could be

[Elecraft] FS: KPA 100 (assembled)

I just bought a KPA100 that was advertised on QTH to put on my K2, but after buying it and before getting it I ordered a K3 100w version so I won't need the KPA100, I now want to keep the K2 as a qrp version. I never installed the KPA100, but the previous owner stated he used it sparingly and

Ah, Yes... the radio is good, the operator error is at it again. I work on PCs and know the issue all to well and am just as guilty as the next guy... the more we know the harder we fall. Glad you found the cure... nothing like a little power to keep the battery charged :-). Bill -Original

[Elecraft] Don Brown Solar Charger Construction question

Group, Sorry this isn't Elecraft per say, but I figure someone here has built Don Brown's solar controllers and I haven't been able to reach him by email. The short of it is, a finished picture of the small 1.5 Amp charger/controller would help me a lot if it could be sent (attached email)
