You're right.. It doesn't have anything to do with the operation of a K3 but it does have everything to do with receiving your K3 from Elecraft and if you will be required to be there to accept delivery of the package. Some of us still work and don't have the luxury of being retired and home all day waiting for UPS to show up.

It has lots of zipper pouches to accommodate loose stuff. It also has a pair of Velcro straps inside the main case that fit snugly over the main K2 to keep it in place.

[Elecraft] K2: HI CUR warning
Hi, I worked a little bit of the SSB contest this weekend. I noticed last night I received the HI CUR warning a couple of times. The antenna is a 40m delta loop. I have checked the SWR and it never gets above 2:1 on the entire band. I also use the internal ATU to get it down to 1:1 when I'm transmitting. I am using a heil goldline with a HC5 cartridge for the mic and the mic gain was set to 3. I have never had the HI CUR warning occur while operating CW only in SSB. I looked up HI CUR in the manual and it says that it's usually to do with the radio trying to drive the finals at a higher output than what they are rated. I can connect a dummy load and set the radio to 10 watts then hold down the TUNE + DISPLAY buttons to put the radio in tune mode bypassing the ATU and the radio is putting out the correct amount of power which leads me to believe that the issue has something to do with the mic. Do you think I have the mic gain set too high? I have since backed it down to 1 and it hasn't done it since but it wasn't doing it everytime when it was set to 3 so I really don't know if that fixed it or not. Is there anyone else who uses a Heil Goldline with their K2? Am I even going down the right path troubleshooting wise? Or should I be looking at something else? 73 Matt W5LL ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.

This particular equipment has audio filters and accepts a 1/4 inch stereo headphone jack. I cleaned it up and it has been in line now for over an hour. The audio filters really help with CW in QRN and smooth out really strong signals that otherwise had a harsh note as they were tuned across. P49V is on 40 meters and is about 40 over S9 and is smooth as silk. The 1/4 inch headphone jack will help, too, as that is what is on the K3 I have ordered (due in early July).

[Elecraft] K2# 4778
Recently added the internal ATU, RS232 and battery kits to my K2. Installed them today and she's back up and running just fine! I know you're probably thinking, why post this and waste bandwidth. Well, I have no one else to tell and I'm excited that all the additions worked the first time around! 73 Matt W5LL ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

[Elecraft] K2: K1EL K40 Keyboard Keyer
Hi, I'm was wondering if there was anyone on this reflector who uses the K1EL K40 with their K2? I am having some difficulty getting mine to key the K2 and was looking for some guidance. I know the K40 works as it works fine with my other rigs but they all work with a mono cable and I notice the K2 manual says a stereo cable is required for external keyers. 73 Matt W5LL ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
