Hi Stewart,
I just need a clarification on the choke to use. I have installed a 10 uH
choke. You are recommending a 1 to 3 mH. You do mean millihenry and not
microhenry--is this right? Roy Morris W4WFB
Hi Roy,
Yes it must be mH
Don't forget that the monthly FPQRP Run For The Bacon sprint is
tonight! It runs from 0100 to 0300 UTC, which for the UTC Challenged
among us, is: 6pm Pacific time, 7pm Mountain time, 8pm Central time and
9pm Eastern time. It runs for 2 hours. See the FP website at

The popular ones I see mentioned regularly are the various Weller's and the
Hakko's. I have a Hakko 936 and like the simple 'turn the knob' temperature

Greetings from Barcelona to all.
Friends, need help to cope with the dreaded and hatred Info 080 message.
Here's my story:
Have been working with the integrated K2/100 and the KAT100-1 for rather a
long time with no problem at all whatsoever.
One day, some three months ago, I decided to
Pauli,
Is it possible that you popped the 150uH (I think) choke in the rs232
part of the KPA100 when you had it out? If everything else is working,
It has to be in either the KPA100 or maybe in the menu setting for the
PA. This of course assumes that you have the cable correct that hooks
Hi
Did you make the resistor and capacitor changes on the AUX buss. R6 should be
100 ohms and c12 should be .0027 on the control board. C64 should be 100 ohms
on the RF board.

Hi everyone,
I'm sure that this will bring a laugh or two but here goes...
Why can I turn the VFO dial up past 50MHz if the radio cannot receive
6-meters? Do I need to purchase a 6-meter radio and a transverter? With the
transverter hooked up to the K2, am I using the 6-meter radios
First, I rather enjoy the HF bands during the sunspot minimum. I've been
operating through several of them since the 1950's and I can say from
experience that the HF bands are far from useless during the minimums
unless you demand the ability to bust a DX pileup with QRP at any hour of
the day or
As an aside, please note the following way on how NOT to solder

Sorry Tom,
We're only half way to the bottom. See:

I've just completed the Control Board and Front Panel for my new K2. It has

end far too abruptly.
The good news is that I found a project to follow the K2. August QST

Thanks for the reply.
I read through that course (I'll probably end up there too someday). My
limited understanding left me feeling like the PIC-EL was based on the
PIC16F84A chip set, an 18-pin chip, while the SX28 is, like it's name
suggests, a 28-pin chip.
I don't think they are physically
No, not at all compatible.
I sort of thought you hadn't built anything yet, and the PIC-EL approach
could give you similar functionality for a lot less bucks. Plus, there's
other fun stuff to do. Actually, the QST project, I think, has a little
more message memory, too. I seem to recall an
Good Evening Folks,
I'm trying to discover if the AuxBus is bi-directional, especially for
the K60XV. Is there any info on the AuxBus ?
I tried to search the archives at Mailman. All I can find is GZipped
files by month. Is there an easier way to search on a topic without
going through every

You got me curious. There is a writeup on the SX28 on the NJQRP site that
seems to indicate that the SX28 is pin compatible with the 28 pin PICs, and
programmed in a similar (but not identical) fashion. This means that with a
little soldering, you may be able to program the beast without
I think the PIC18F252 will fit. I have been using a PIC18F252 with a
similar board, the Olimex PIC MT-C and have built a CW memory keter with
it. The free SDCC C compiler needs a few months more work to be solid,
but it is usable now.

Can't help you with the archive, Mike, but yes the AuxBus is Bi-directional.
Go to the MicroChip web site and check out the PIC controller documentation.
It is all
Silly me. I always thought an SX-28 was a 1940s vintage single
conversion Hallicrafters receiver. I didn't know you could program one,
much less that they had a key...
