Morning all,
I have a new (to me) K2 #2481 it has the KSB2 and KAF2 .
When I check the software version it reads "2.01 H 1.02" first
question is:
does that mean that I am running version 2.01 or 1.02 software?
I don't yet have the dead tree version of the manual(s), so I have been
spot reading the ones I found onlne.
I really didn't want to get into the in depth BFO alignment stuff yet
and am hopefully assuming it's on the correct side. My question arose
when I wanted to move the previous owners cw center frequency up from
500hz to 600hz. Using the instructions I found on:
http://www.n0ss.net/k2_filters_using_gram_v5r17.pdf
Everything went well, the center frequency is now 600hz and the filters
look and sound nice and tight.
Referencing page 8 of the above pdf I ran in to a problem, so it says.
The DAC in CW Normal does is not lower than the determined center
frequency value.
Then I read on page 9 and it says *if* the BFO is on the wrong side,
(which the DAC readings would seem to indicate), one or more filter
setting would show a shift of the center freq and be more than 200hz
*correction that was meant to say 20 hz off*
off. All the filter settings are dead on, no vfo changes needed when
cycling thru the 4 settings.
SO what's the deal here, do I ignore the DAC readings?
Bandwidths used are 1400, 800, 400, 100.
Center freq DAO CW Normal DAO
142 157
135 154
130 152
128 151
Ah the joys of a rig you can actually work on, heheheh.
TIA
