I've gotten K2 # 5422 - out of the crates, out of the hanger, onto the tarmack, and pushed out a ways, to Part III alignment. Thanks to superb help from "Scott", "Gary", "Lisa", "Don" and Elecraft Parts and Support groups - I've had a successful build so far!
Can't say enough about both the experts on this "board", and with Elecraft's support team. VERY NICE to work with. Its a good feeling, knowing there is help a hollar away! QUESTION: K2 BANDS? How does one know what "BAND" the K2 is set for? I know I can do BAND+ and BAND-, and I can do BAND+/BAND- frequencies entries. BUT HOW DO I (me) know - what BAND the K2 thinks it is in? There must be a base BAND spot - where all the ups, downs, and changes go from. When I did the VCO RF BOARD alignments - at one point, I had the K2's bands all messed up. I think I was able to get it back - but I'm still not sure I understand the philosophy the K2 uses - for being in 1 band or another. Once I do get the K2 in a known BAND, how do I change frequencies IN THAT BAND? One almost wonders why there isn't a "Band Swith", with markings 80/40/......... :) I think those little black relay boxes, have a hand in this madness.
