Yes ,The k2/100 That W3FPR Built me is set on the dash of my 18 wheeler ,and has done well ,over say about 30,000 mile's so far,No problems from vibrations,etc. I make lots of contacts including DX,but I have a pretty healthy mobile station,including a Henry SS750 amp and a Hi-Q antenna.Bands have been tough last few weeks as you know,so at low power you may want to think about running CW . I run alot on the county hunters net and am making plans to run CW more because of lousy conditions.......... Now my question: I have a very loud pop when using CW with the Henry Amp,I adjusted the T-R setting and for the most part takes it out,but I like T-R setting to be 0.00 is there another way to remove this Pop???? ,BTW Don rig is doing GREAT!! 73s all W4GNS
There is a note in the manual indicating that no fixatives of any kind are needed or desired, so do not use anything on the toroids - (or you do so at your own peril). There are several K2s being used successfully for mobile operation. I built a K2/100 for Gary W4GNS for use in his 18 wheeler, and he has not mentioned any problems so far (those toroids are mounted only by their leads).
