Hello,
I would like to thank everyone for responding. Unfortunately, I still
do not have this problem solved. Very frustrating! After some more
poking around, here is what I can say about this. It only happens when
I press 'Menu', not when pressing 'Display'. It is intermittent,
although it happens more often than not. After pressing 'NB', it seems
to go away for a while. I have checked all my soldering on each board.
I could not find any solder bridges anywhere, nor any globs of solder
not on a pad. I checked the direction of all diodes and the are all
correct. Hmmmm...
Thanks,
Chris KC9GSV

Chris,
It was a while back, but I think I had this same issue. The problem
turned out to be a diode installed backwards on the control board.

Hello,
Well, I got up to the power on test for K2 #4718 and it worked! Very
exciting. Prior to this, the only electronics that I had built were
Elecraft's noise generator and test oscilator, which I plan to use
with the K2.
The issue, though, is that when I tap the menu button or the display
button, "not inst" will flash for a second before the menu is
displayed. All tests checked out after power up, except the keyer,
since I don't have a paddle. Let me add that at this point, I am
missing one pushbutton switch, S16, which I am waiting on a
replacement for.
Is this message a problem or something to worry about? Like I said,
everything seems to be working just fine, except for this message
that flashes occaisionally. I couldn't find anything in the manual
regarding this.
Thanks,
Chris KC9GSV
