You probably need to open up the XV and look at how it was set up .. jumpers move around depending on whether it's used with Elecraft or foreign equipment, different attenuators, etc Is the transverter power control working? e.g. if you select the band on K2 does the XV light up?
If it's all set up properly, the pair of cables from K60XV and XV50 carry 28MHz between K2 and XV, antenna connects to big connector on XV de w1rt/john On Fri, Mar 2, 2012 at 7:28 PM, KM4VX <ronce...@earthlink.net> wrote: > I have a K2/10 connected to a KAT100 and KPA100, both enclosed in the > external EC2 enclosure.
