Hello all!
Long time no mailing list... I have a nice, vintage K2, that I want
to spruce up, tune up, and bring back to it's full MOJO. Kind of a
it's not dead yet, it's just resting. Actually, it's been in use, off
and on over the years, am now getting more serious about plying the
airwaves.
Been looking over the various places of K2 lore, for updates and so
forth, Sverre's site, Don's, and of course the Elecraft site.
First order of business , is it possible to have my S/N looked up?
Found a database that I don't seem to be in, found that the Elecraft
list archives go back to 2001, but I'm not finding a post of mine in
there, so hopefully the Elecraft Records Repository would still contain
it somewhere. Then I can proudly post it on the bottom of my mails, like
it was done back in the day. ;-)
Next, I have a range of boards for it, the NB, SSB, Antenna tuner, 160m
antenna, and just built my long languishing KIO2 kit, to bring this
K2-10 into the 21 (20th?) century. I have started to go thru them and
see if I have all the mods and etc that should be done on them, have
done many already, but back about '03-04. Guess this is just a matter
of looking things up, though I have a few questions there and probably
will have more.
Another next, I've been having difficulty checking to see which
versions of firmware are the latest, and what the various versions
add. Is there a version change log or something like that?
Here's what I have so far, looks like the two main ones are down a
bit, but I don't know what I'm missing, or if I really need the updates.
MCU 2.01f
RF 1.02
KSB2 1.04
ATU 1.03 f
Here's the PCB versions marked on the boards:
Main rev A
Control rev A
ATU rev C (note, the board does NOT match the picture of the recent
note stating some cut and jumper rework should be done on a rev C)
NB and 160m rev D
SSB don't have, will have to yank it to read
So, the beginning of a journey. Will greatly appreciate whatever tips
and directions I could be pointed in.
