> Has anyone seen the K2 act like this before? Yes some years ago, after a falling pine brought down the antenna in use while the K2/100 was transmitting (CW). Diodes D12 and D14 in the KPA100's T-R switch both failed into a shorted condition, and one of the diodes in the K2's T-R switch failed as well. I was very lucky that the KPA100's transistors did not blow. My K2/100 now shares a protective shutdown system.
I suggest that you do not use the transmitter until you have checked out the T-R switches in the KPA100 and the K2. 73, Geoff GM4ESD ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
