It is normal to have more TX RF Gain on 80/40 meters than on the higher

Which parts of the alignment do you wish to do with a scope? I found it
useful only for the final alignment of the LC filters in transmit mode
because I don't have a sensitive QRP-level wattmeter. I used a modest old
scope (Tek 2215) with a 10X probe, a BNC tee, and a good dummy load (Bird
I see the issue. I could find monitors under 10 but the resolution
was 800x600 at the best. Going to 10 inches only increased that to
1024x768

Does anybody need an oscilloscope to align a K2? The tools on board with an

a K2 basic kit and the Internal automatic antenna tuner kit.

Hello folks,
I'm selling my K2/10 to help finance my KX3 purchase. What I have are:
K2/10 SN 4864 lovingly built by Rich Arland K7SZ and has all the latest
updates as of 6/2011.
KSB2 SSB module
KAT2 autotuner module
KDSP2 DSP module
KIOS2 I/O module
K160RX 160 meter module
KBT2 internal battery
A solid 15v (adjustable to 15v) supply is best, capable of 30 amp with good
regulation.
Good quality switch mode recommended.
A cable upgrade into the K3 is recommended too.
The original K3 factory cable has too much volt drop, my replacement is 4 x
the size of original csa.
15v in with cable
