the problem is not in the k2 it checked out okay the kat 100 seems to be acting really strange with the leds lighting some sometimes as it tunes and sometimes it does not and it was cycling through and never really tuning so I think the problem is in the kat100 which is in the same box as the kpa 100 so I will start the diagnosis of that on Saturday.

First, just move the antenna to the base K2 to see if you can hear there - if so, next move it direct to the KPA100 antenna connector - if you can still hear the signals, the problem is with the KAT100. Once you determine which Elecraft box contains the problem, we can help more. OTOH, if you have the K160RX option installed, be certain Rant is set off on 80 meters. The receive antenna setting is remembered on a per band basis. As a quick check, just connect an antenna to the receiveng antenna jack. 73, Don W3FPR ----- Original Message ----- >I set my k2 up two days ago after a long time idle and hooked up an 80 >dipole I was tuning around on 80 meters and it sounded dead but when I >switched the > antenna to my Kenwood ts450 the band came to life. so it appears that my > k2 > with remote kpa100 and tuner seems to be deaf the last thing I had done to > the unit was the shield mod on the kpa 100 did not have a chance to check > it > out after words so any ideas as to where to begin? > see ya > -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
