That's great Allen! I'm in Goddard about 45 miles SW of you - nice to have another K2 in the area. 73, Bill NZ0T K2/100 5703, K3/100 1502 W1SBY wrote: > > Hello all! > > I am proud to say that K2 sn 6688 is alive and well in Hutchinson, KS, USA > > I finished up all of the preliminary testin

Allan, I forgot to mention - after you adjust the 10 meter bandpass, then adjust the 12 meter capacitors too - the proper setting depends on the setting of the inductors which will be changed if you re-peak 10 meters. 73, Don W3FPR Allen Wisbey wrote: > Hello all! > > I am proud to say that K2

Allan, Set the 10 meter bandpass filter to peak on 28400 rather than the 28200 suggested in the manual and you will likely have more 10 meter coverage. Note that the 10 meter band specification for the K2 is from 28.0 to 28.8 MHz, so do expect output to fall off above that frequency. 73, Don

Hello all! I am proud to say that K2 sn 6688 is alive and well in Hutchinson, KS, USA I finished up all of the preliminary testing and alignment, then built the option boards (DSP, SSB, NB, 60mtr, 160mtr). A few minutes ago I did some over-the-air checks on 40mtrs with a friend across town. Al
