[Elecraft] Contest... cq sp?
Heard a bunch of stations last nite on 40CW calling CQ sp test exchange was state & power(w) I searched all the contest listing but couldn't find a contest that was being run at this time. Anyone know what contest this was, and where I can find a good webpage listing all contest activity? 73, Clint WS1V __ Yahoo!

[Elecraft] Those nasty little rosin spots
Finally stated building my CMOS4 keyer, and I was going to ask this group what they thought about cleaning rosin off...but after reading the archives I see this has been a hot topic for discussion previously. Guess I'll have to decide for myself if it is really worth it.. :) I'm using the reccommeded solder so I guess I'm all set there. Have fun!! 73 - Clint - WS1V __ Yahoo!

[Elecraft] Rig - Computer Interface
Sorry for this off topic, but if figured I'd ask here.. I've been considering a Rig - Computer interface since I would like to start working some of the digital modes. I've been eye'n the West Mountain interfaces for awhile, but last nite I read some positive information on the Tigertronics SignalLink units. I have some older equipement(tubes & knobs), and some newer equipment, and possibly soon a K2, and I want an interface that will easily work with all. So I'm looking for some pros/cons and what rig you are using it with? Thanks for your reply, 73 - Clint - WS1V __ Yahoo! DSL Something to write home about.

[Elecraft] Construction question
I'm attempting my 1st contruction project in many years... CMOS4 keyer, and I have what is probably a pretty stupid question that maybe others can answer for me here. When you install a component on the printed side of the circuit board, and then you tip the board over to solder, what are accepted methods to keep the compenent from falling off? I've read that you should bend the leads to hold the component onto the board but I was wondering if this is the only acceptable way? Thanks for you info, 73 - Clint - WS1V __ Do You Yahoo!?

[Elecraft] Success !!
I motivated myself this weak to finish my CMOS4 keyer kit which I've had sitting here on the desk since April. Put the batteries in today and the little keyer gave me the OK. This is only the 2nd kit I've put together the 1st one was an AMECO Code practice oscillator I built back in 1976 to practice code to get my Novic license .. I could have used a torch to solder in those components, but realized I had to be a little more careful with the CMOS4 kit :) I want to thank everyone here who gave me information & encouragement, plus obtaining the wealth of information from reading the archives, this all help with this successful build. Now do I get the courage enough to attempt and Elecraft kit maybe soon!! 73, Clint WS1V __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

[Elecraft] 2.5mm DC power plug ?
I'm drawing a blank on this question, even though I have seen the answer somewhere before. I have a 2.5mm DC female coaxial power plug moled on a cord. One of the leads on the cord has a white line ... does this white line designate the center pin on the plug? 12VDC needs to be on the center pin, so I need to make sure I install the power pole connectors on the power souce end correctly.

[Elecraft] Re: First Elecraft kit completed.
Jeff, Sounds like a good way to start, I'm starting with an Idiom Press CMOS 4 Keyer, then I'll tackle some Elecraft kit. 73, Clint WS1V From: Jeff Rosenberger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [Elecraft] First Elecraft kit completed. To: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed You'll notice I didn't say on the air. That's because my first kit was the lowly DL1 Dummy Load. I plan to eventually build a K2, but that didn't seem like a good place to start. Next on the block are a Norcal 40A and a T1. I can't wait to make the first contact using equipment I built. Gotta sharpen up my CW first though :) For those that worry about the increasing age of the ham population, I'm 22 years old. I'm just getting in to kit building now that I have a real job and real disposable income. Jeff N3SX/1 __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
