I confess I have not been inside my K2 since I installed the SSB board, not too long after I built it. I still need to perform the mod on the static-ky audio (mine isnt that bad but I think its time).
Now I am contemplating upgrading to 100 watts, once I figure out how many upgrades I need to make. I downloaded the Upgrading to Rev B instructions, and the KPA100 instructions. And I am trying to digest all this! My current firmware is 2.01F. Now what purchases must I make (in addition to KPA100) to enjoy this rig at 100w? I am sensing with the additional thermal load that perhaps the PLL and BFO upgrades are prudent. OK another $29 here does not sound too scary. My QRP K2 has nice frequency accuracy thru 20m, but on 10 and 15m i have noticed a small error which puzzled me until I read about the PLL upgrade. I am not contemplating adding DSP or an autotuner - so is my firmware good enough ? Is there anything else that I must upgrade to enjoy this rig at 100 w ? I understand it is prudent to evaluate all the aspects in the revision B instructions while the rig is receiving other mods, but I havent noticed any of these issues yet. Looking for enlightenment on how to upgrade this middle-aged K2. 73, curt ____________________________________________________________________________________ Bored stiff? Loosen up...
