I too use Thunderbird, and it is wonderful. I look at 40 or so lists,
each has a folder, and Thunderbird has filters, so they all go directly
into their respective folders.
Free, and far better than anything out there...

Good Evening,
Conditions changed during both nets. On twenty meters the noise
kept growing until I could not hear anything. On forty meters signal
strength changed during a contact. QSB was mild to medium on both nets
which meant a few S0 reports.
Winter continues to be mild except
Hi Lou.
The dates of the updates are on the documentation on the Elecraft website. But
as Don mentioned, the AtoB kit is the best guide. I will tell you from recent
experience (still in progress) that if you try to install the updates in time
sequential order, it will get confusing. There are

I have a K3... the best radio I've ever owed in my 50+ year ham life. I'm
currently using a US Interface Navigator with it for digital modes. This is
now sold as the Time Wave Navigator and has worked really well for me for many
years.
My understanding is that the K3S and now the incoming

I have only two data points supporting this hypothesis -- me, and my
grandson. So this is just FWIW: The (or at least much of the) allure of
amateur radio lies in doing something yourself and seeing it actually work.

The K2 reference on your site is great. I'm laminating a copy.
Many thanks, Don.

My KX3 only has a Phones output and that won’t drive speakers well, so I use an
off-the-shelf headphone splitter and a cheap audio amp that runs off 12 V. The
details are here.

Tom,
What a great history you have. I envy your photos on your QRZ page. My
folks did not have cash for casual pictures. I do not have a pix of my
BC348, ARC 5 or BC454 radios or the power supplies that I built to run
them.Back then power supplies were basically finding an old boob tube and
Chuck,
Yes, you can do that by soldering a jumper across the switch at the rear
of the headphone jack.
If you prefer not to add the jumper, plug stereo computer speakers into
the headphone jack and plug your headphones into the headphone jack on
the speaker.
Try different computer speakers,
Well I have been an extra class since 1963. I too, have patents and am a

But I admit that I feel dumber than a hammer when looking at all the

I cannot give you a List by date even though I have been working with
the K2 since 1998. The best I can do is refer you to the K2ATOB
instructions (download it). The 1st page lists all the associated
updates. Download the instructions for each of those and inspect your
K2 to see what
I've recently begun volunteering aboard the museum ship USS Slater, where
they have a K2 in Radio Central. I've looked through the manual, but might
have overlooked this.
Is there a way to have both headphones and external speaker active at the
same time? I'm thinking of being able to have
The question I have is, can I connect the Y-connector to the back of my

Hey, I'm looking for a chronological list of K2 updates if such a thing
exists. A long while ago I remember somebody having compiled one. I built my

figure out what updates I don't have and which I might want to

I am, sadly, one of those dumber than a hammer types. Never learned to solder
anything. Theory was not my strength, and if you sat me in front of an Extra
