Yes Brett, I do have the correct antenna setting installed. I get a SWR
reading on all bands but no reading on 80mtrs. Although there is no reading
on 80mtrs the SWR is ok, with 599 signals on most of my. 80 mtr qso's

Hello everyone. I don't know if anyone keeps track of this
information, but my K2 SN #6799 is now assembled and on the air. I'll
probably begin installing the 100 watt amp later this week. As you
might expect, it works perfectly and went together without any major
issues.

OK if at first you don't succeed try reading the manual. For some reason
VFO OFS got changed to ON from OFF. Everything is normal for me now after
changing it back to OFF. Lots of features and I'm still learning!

George,
my big congrats for Your new K2! Excellent job from You and I hope that
You will enjoy Your new rig a lot. I am using K2 quite often and still
it can't be beat by most of other rice boxes on the market. If You do
not have it yet then look for KAF2 and 160m modules as they are very
useful.
This reflector is probably good place to watch. Occasionally someone
offers up a K3 for sale.
An alternative is to call Elecraft. They have K3s -- maybe not
pre-owned, but ...

The pinout and the microphone configuration header information is in the
KSB2 manual (download it from the Elecraft website if you do not have a

The Kenwood pinout is almost the same as the Elecraft pinout *except*
for pins 5 and 6 which are interchanged between the two. A

I agree that most of the time the ARRL radio product reviews are performed
with 400-500 Hz bandwidth IF filters installed. However there is at least
one notable exception. Have a look at the March 1991 ARRL review of the now
famous Yaesu FT1000D. The ARRL tests were conducted with 250 Hz
