[Elecraft] Smoke Detectors

2020-10-28 Thread Geoffrey Feldman
Radio waves are non-Ionizing. I hope we all know that and know one another know that. However the near field is an electrical field. The smoke detector compares the ionization between two chambers, both with the same radioactive source. One is exposed to the environment (smoke) and the other is

Welp, I'm back after about a 17 year hiatus.  Dusted off and checked out the old K1 and it seems to be working gud.  I had a question, the old tx offset issue, but got it sorted using an alternative method.  I see they subsequently modified the circuit and added a switch to the bottom of the

Doug, You are exactly right. If you follow the K2 history, you will find that the K2 A TO B kit was issued to pull all the prior mods together as well as providing instructions about the best sequence to use when doing a full upgrade. That happened at the same time the B level boards were

For anyone considering updating an old K2, a small point that may not be clear in the instructions is that the K2ATOBKT is sort of a "top level" kit that "controls" the other mod kits. So instead of installing the various kits in their calendar order of publishing (2001, 2002, 2003, etc.), the

David and all, I am a little late chiming in here, but all David's points are correct except for a caution on one. The alternate winding ratio for T4 should never be used with the KSB2 or the KPA100 installed. It is OK for power in CW kept below 5 watts. If the PA is operated above 5 watts,

Try shorting the RCA connector on the amp and see if the TX light comes on. Load the KPA1500 utility and look at the log file. Look on the KPA1500 and see what frequency it thinks the amp is on. If it is out of band it will not TX. That is where I would start. Also check that all cables are
