[Elecraft] K2 with DEM 2 mtr transvertor
Elecraft list de PA2DW, At present I have a K2 with built-in DEMI 2M transvertor. This transvertor was specially desiged for the K2, fits nicely in the topcover of the K2 and is now obsolete at DEMI. The transvertor outputs a 100 mW and has 0 dB gain. As such it is ideal for use with microwave transvertors and 144 MHz as IF, or use it with a mastmounted LNA and a seperate PA to amply the 100 mW. Since I currently use my K3 with a Kuehne (DB6NT) transvertor, I no longer use the K2/transvertor and I'd like to swap the (mint) topcover with 2m transvertor (including top-cover) against a (mint) topcover with speaker, KAT2 antennetuner and KBT2 battery. Anyone interested in this, please mail me offlist. Thanks for bandwith Elecraft!

RE: [Elecraft] K2 and FSK
Hi Ron and others, As I very much like to do EME and MS on 144 MHz my RF-power there is higher than average to say the least hi! So as to reduce chances for LFD etc, I decided that I should use FSK CW. It had to be FSK without phasejumps, so SSB-FSK was found to be not suitable. At the time I decided this, there was no commercial product on the market (and today there still is not) so I had to build something myself. That way my current 2m transceiver was conceived and it is still in use. It now uses a DDS and by manipulating the DDS databus, It makes realtime FSK, virtually without phase-jumps. The neighbours only hear a slight click when I switch the TX on/off. Also since the introduction of WSJT, a convector (developed by PA3BIY) was taken in use, that converts the tones of WSJT to data for the DDS. I have a K2 in use as a secondary transceiver on 144 with the DEM 144-28 ECK built in. I also use this rig as IF for microwave, very recommended I must say! So if the K2 could ever make real FSK, I would be very pleased! But it would probably take a significant hardware modification and software development for just a small group of people, so I guess that the developers at Elecraft will probably think they have something better to do hi! Or?!... 73, Dick PA2DW K2/DEM 144-28ECK KX1 ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.

[Elecraft] FS: MH2
Hi all, I have a microphone type MH2 for sale. My home made microphone simply suits my needs. The MH2 is hardly used and therefore is in excellent condition! Selling it for 50 Euro plus shipping. 73, Dick PA2DW ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.
