Hello all,
It has been too long since I built a K2. I have a special offer for
anyone that wants a K2 built. I will build your K2 for half my usual fee,
IF I can use your finished K2 for a demo at the Melbourne, Florida hamfest
on September 10-12. (Need to get it pretty quickly.) I have bu

Hi Eric
Good to hear that the software isn't too far away. Hopefully we will be
able to include the AUX relays in the band configurations
It would, in my opinion make the KRC2 a much more useful shack accessory
if the button functions could be redefined as well. This would make the
KRC2 far more v
FWIW: Years ago, I used a transverter in satellite work that smoked
with more than about 2W input. I fed my 30S1 into the Heath Cantenna,
and tapped what I needed off a little RC voltage divider.

Hi
One simple mod you could do would be to change out the three 160 ohm 3 watt
resistors in the internal dummy load with 160 ohm 5 watt resistors. This should
allow you to go to 10-12 watts with no problem. You will need to use MOS type
non inductive resistors. Mouser has them. I would stand th

Please see my posting last week for events through 9/6/04.

Hi Brendan,
We're writing a Windows based KRC2 utility right now that will allow the
user to map any combination of its output antenna relay drivers based
upon what band it decodes. (You will be able to check off on the screen
which antenna relays (one or more) are enabled per band.) This will

linear amp switching though including ALC input (remote connector pin

Of course you don't want to add an attenuator in the receive signal path. .
The XV Transverter uses a simple resistive L-net attenuator inside on the TX
circuit side of the Transmit/Receive switch. The attenuator is switched into
the circuit that by jumpers when needed.

The TS-850S doesn't have such an output, at least not according to the

Hi
If the Kenwood has a low level transverter output then you can set up the
jumpers for 0 to 1 MW input. Another option would be to build a 50 ohm 3 db
power attenuator on the output of the Kenwood. There are several designs in the
back of the ARRL handbook. The low level out is the best way t

Jim has done a great job designing a small computer for use with his K2.

I build up my K2 for 2004 Field Day.
It's a great radio and I really like it, but except
for portable/field use the knobs, buttons are too
small for my meat hooks.

running strings) and I guess I'm gonna sell my K2,

Tnx, to everyone who responded. I should have known Elecraft would pick up

lost track of what was going on.

I don't have an 850S, but you could try an external negative dc supply
(say -9v to 0v) on the radios ALC input. That should vary the output
from zero upwards.
Most of the Kenwood range have a Din socket transverter port on the rear
apron which outputs a couple of milliwatts or so although I s

Why, from Elecraft, of course!
Elecraft now has the FingerDimple in stock. Take a look at their web

Yes. I also get less change (as compared to 30m and 40m) when changing RF
gain. I have also noticed (as predicted by Elecraft) that the KX1 is sensitive
to your choice of headphones.

Does somebody could tell me if there is a way to know who own a K2,
especialy the one living around me: all VE2 and VA2 here in the

I forgot the place, but I saw a list in the past, that people owning a

Chas,
Elecraft sells them. Check on their web site.

Hi
New boy here, ordered k2 last Tuesday afternoon, postman knocked at noon today
Friday, with the box. Now I have to clear the bench so I can build #4421.
Thanks for a great delivery
