Eddy,
Run the wire - that connector on the K2 is an input only. There is a
series reverse voltage protection diode in the K2 that will prevent
current from flowing *out* of that connector.
One use for that connector is to use two power sources with the K2. A
high current power supply conne
As always Don, thanks for the adviceI should have looked at the circuit

Finished the KAT100-1 tuner and I'm seriously impressed with this unit!!
Question, my K2 has installed the KPA100 amp in the K2, I noticed I have 12vdc
connector at the rear of the K2, can I use this 12vdc source to power the
KAT100-1 instead of running a separate lower lead to my 12v supply?
Terry,
A high power version of the Elecraft T1 would do that job, but I would
think the Elecraft portion of that market would be small, there are
several auto-tuners for the 150 to 200 watt range already in the
marketplace.
Enjoy the remodeling task.

Terry,
Sorry, but the KAT100 needs the K2 AUXBUS signal to tune, change
settings per band/per antenna, etc.

I'm just wrapping up the build of the KAT100 antenna tuner (I was in need of
a solder fix) and a thought occurred to me. Has anyone considered an
external circuit that would allow the KAT100 to be used with HF transceivers
other than the K2? The K2-KAT100 interface is a great feature and very wel
Chuck,
I have never seen a mobile bracket for the K2. Use whatever works for
you installation. I would be thinking Velcro for a part of the
solution (although I would not attempt to hang it below the dash and
rely on Velcro, the K2 would have to sit on some surface of the vehicle
or the mou
Greetings to the group,
I built K2/100 3347 a couple of years ago with the idea of using it as a
mobile rig. It performed so well in the bench trials that my venerable
TS-940 wound up on eBay. The purchase of K3 2693 last month put the K2
back on track to the mobile. My question to those of yo
