[Elecraft] OT: Groond rods and concrete

-NEVER- encase a ground rod in concrete ... especially a tower base. As a retired 2-way radio tech, I'm aware of two towers that had to be re-installed because of lightening strikes exploding their concrete bases. 73! Ken - K0PP On Mon, Apr 17, 2017 at 3:06 PM, Matt Zilmer

Re: [Elecraft] KX2 speaker/headphone question

In answer to a list member question ... the speaker is acoustically resonant and -very- narrow. I suspect Stan's build and his KX2's filtered output tone are too far apart. I have two of the original speakers and they are phenomenal! 73 Ken - K0PP On Feb 6, 2017 19:07, "stan levandowski"
