As a K2 only owner I appreciate when the posters reference the equipment they are posting about in the subject line (e.g. "K3"). This helps with auto sorting. Tom, wb2qdg K2 #1103 On 9/21/2016 1:29 PM, Thomas Taylor wrote: On Tue, 20 Sep 2016 18:35:27 + Eric J

Eric, I do repairs, alignment and calibration and upgrades of the Elecraft legacy gear (K2, K1, KX1 and XV series transverters), and I am as busy as I want to be (sometimes more than I want to be). So there is still a lot of interest in that gear, but you are right, most of the posts are

so I've been using my K2 manual a LOT lately and the cover is starting to fall off - the holes are tearing out. Anybody know of a good way to protect it from falling off completely? TJ W0EA __ Elecraft mailing list Home:

Try your local office supply store, like Staples. They have the ability to create spiral-bound manuals. They could probably disassemble your manual, laminate and re-punch the cover, and assemble it again. I had some similar work done and it was surprisingly cheap. 73, Dennis NJ6G On

I would like to use an analogue speech compressor like the one in the K2 SSM2165 but I see it is now obsolete. Can anyone recommend an alternative? In amateur applications of modest compression, is there much difference between the -1 and -2 types? I'm told a few of the lower gain versions

I made my own cable. I used the 1/8 stereo plug for the RCV audio, and I believe I use a 1/8 mono for the TX audio because I have one of the Heil microphone adapter cables that breaks out the Keying and TX audio ckts to seperate 1/4 1/8 jacks accordingly. Made it pretty simple versus having to
