Gordon, During operation of the K2, the reference oscillator is not used except as the oscillator for the microprocessor - so there will be no observed effect from changing the C22 setting.
During the calibration steps (for an accurate CAL FCTR reading, and before running CAL PLL or CAL FIL), the reference oscillator accuracy is important, and should be set properly before any of these operations. 73, Don W3FPR > -----Original Message----- > > When I built my K2 #2746 4 years back now I set C22 near enough using an > external frequency counter, then last year I added the SSB board, I noted > that I was about 200 Hz high as I do not work near band edges I > left it at > that, but recently decided I would get it a bit nearer however I now find > that moving C22 does absolutely nothing, the trimmer cant be open > or short > circuit as I am still pretty near correct on CW. > > a local pal who has recently built a K2 has found the same > problem when he > built his K2 he calibrated C22 okay but now finds that moving C22 does > nothing I have studied the circuit and I just can not figure out why this > should be so > > I am quite happy to leave it as it is but if anyone has any idea why it > would be appreciated > > _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
