Tim:
Here's my put on the topics:
1) I guess the default has to be something for the PRE/ATT switch. As
long as it seems to work and the K2 remembers the last setting per band,
it sounds to me like it is working OK. I can't remember what my
settings initially were.
2) Do the secondary functions of the RATE switch work (lock and "0")?
Without digging out the schematic, my guess is that switch is just an
input to the main processor. If the LOCK and "0" functions work, but
the RATE doesn't, it sounds like a problem with the firmware, which
would be pretty strange indeed. So I'm guessing the LOCK and "0"
functions don't work either, which means either a bad solder joint or
perhaps a short or a defective switch.
That's my 2 cents worth. Hope it helps.

1 - The PRE annunciator is turned on for all bands - even after a
reset to factory defaults. The PRE/ATT switch works and activates
relays. If I go through each band and turn off the PRE and then turn
the K2 off and on again, the bands WILL retain the status of having
the PRE turned off. However, I do not understand why it defaulted to
being turned on from the factory settings. Can you point me in the
right direction to understand this?
2 - The RATE switch does not change rates. I checked the secondary
menu and the basic 3 rate default is set. Can you suggest where I
start to solve this issue?
