Hi,
I know I read sometime a message telling that we must use the K2 at a
maximum power level of 10W to prevent such overheating, or final to
blow...... I'm not sure if I dream it or it is a real concern.
Yesterday, I checked my K2 running at full QRP power on every band
using the dummy load and my meter, I mesured the output level since I
added the internal antenna tuner KAT.... just to make sure that
everything is working fine. I have a CAL CUR set at 3.5A as suggested
in the manual. On 40M at 7.100 Khz, I got a nearly 19V DC on my dummy
load... so about 14.6W....
Can I run my K2 at full QRP power ?
