Didn't DK3RED do something similar some time ago? Take a look at http://www.ac6rm.net/mailarchive/html/elecraft-list/2002-06/msg00829.html. He used instead the on-off switch of the K2 with its DPDT function to bypass the in-line diode for charging of the internal battery when the K2 is turned off. Unfortunately I cannot get his homepage to work right now so I cannot find the details.

I am finishing up a new K2 with internal battery and would like to use a DPDT switch in place of the supplied one so that I can either connect or bypass the in-line diode and resistor in the battery wiring depending on what power supply I am using. Has anyone found a substitute DPDT switch that matches the footprint of the stock one? Thanks 73, N7NSD Norm _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.
