Ben, It sounds like re-heating of the solder connections on both sides of C121 is in order. The fact that your RF voltage on terminal 3 of T1 has the proper ratio to that on terminal 1 implies that T1's solder joints are OK. The absence of RF on the driver (Q6 base circuit) side of C121 could be due to a very low impedance being presented there, but this would have been reflected in a much lower voltage reading at terminal 3 of T1 ** if ** C121 was properly connected.
I would hesitate to operate the transmitter without the heat sink attached even for brief periods of time. Good luck, and 73, Mike, K8CN -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K2-POWER-control-has-no-effect-on-actual-transmit-power-tp7564692p7564709.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
