The blue in the display on the new amp would match a waterfall display on something. Perhaps a cabinet the same size of the new amp. I decided in January I was not going to buy another radio until Dayton. Dan KM6CQ __ Elecraft mailing

I am new to the list. I have been reading the mail for the past few days. I am not new to Elecraft Kits. I built my first K2 back in 2005. Since then I have built 6 of them for various friends. Sold my personal K2 in 2009 because I got real sick. Build another one last year but it turned

Surface mount actually is pretty easy once you do it a few times. In some cases it can actually be easier, there is none of the having to reform leads on components like when you are provided a 2.5mm lead spaced part to go in holes 5mm apart etc. All I use is my regular iron with a fine

Agreed. While I understand surface mount components have made kits harder to support, building the K2 was some of the most fun I have had in ham radio. Brian KB1VBF Sent from my iPad > On May 2, 2017, at 8:11 PM, Harry Yingst via Elecraft > wrote: > > Hopefully

Re: [Elecraft] KPOD toggle macros?

Jim, That is "tricky and potentially dangerous". The problem with toggles is that Macros do not know the current state of things, and the state cannot be interrogated using Macros because Macros do not include "IF Then" logic. If you are looking at the display you can usually tell the

Re: [Elecraft] Memory mode with K2

Hans, I have never dealt with a remote K2 setup, so I have no experience with that - but I do know the K2 quite well when operated locally. I suspect the No Connection problem is a problem with the remote operation of HRD and not the K2 - too much "computer stuff" in the middle to know for

Re: [Elecraft] K2X HRD PTT interface

The "magic" is to check carefully to find ALL ways in which you have setup for PTT. This is a common problem and I'll bet you at least two PTT options set. The software turns one off and stops sending data. But the other is controlled by something else and didn't "get the memo". Sent from

Re: [Elecraft] K2X HRD PTT interface

Jim, I assume you have the KX2 (not the K2X). For proper operation, you must have an indication on the ALC meter. 4 bars solid with the 5th bar flashing. If you do not achieve that condition, the power output will be erratic. Note well, that is the "NO ALC" point for the KX2, KX3, K3 and

Not likely. 2400W output, optimistic efficiency 95%, you've got to dump >125W heat key down at full power on high duty cycle modes. It has a fan, but who cares? You can move the power supply away from operating desk (very happy about this feature!) and besides, if you're concerned about fan

Jim, Are you using PTT and VOX both? If so, try only one. With HRD, you can set PTT via command (no physical connection to the hardware PTT line). That has always worked well for me, but I have not tried it with the KX2. 73, Don W3FPR On 5/2/2017 2:26 PM, Jim Sr Sturges wrote: First
