My K2 will usually go down to 100mW, but it's a borderline power level and
pretty touchy. When I go into the TUNE position, it will sometimes indicate
not enough power to make an SWR measurement. I've found it more reliable
and accurate to set it at 1W, and use a 10dB pad on the output. If
Bill,
The K2 will go down to 0.1 watts, and there is a mod that will allow the
power control circuits to increast that by a factor of 10, so it will
control down to 0.01 watts - see
http://www.madisoncounty.net/~kj5tf/K2mWmod.htm for the details, but if you
are driving an amplifier with it, note
I'm considering a K2. The power out spec says .5W... how much less?
I'm not much of a QRP op, my amplifier only needs 100 to 150mW. If the
K2 will reliably go to 100mW or less I can skip inserting an attenuator
and simplify T/R switching.
