[Elecraft] k2 filter setup
Hi to all I have a questions about filter calibration on the k2... I have take a K2, and in a second time i have build and mount the KPA100... Serial number is 5985. My cw filter are set at 1.0 0.7 0.4 and 015 Hz i would set the first cw filter from 1.0Khz to 1.5khz wide. i Have find a fine article abouth that, and have see the prodecure on my manual... The problem is this... I set the filter from 1.0 to 1.5Khz, and i can hear a different noise sound from the receiver, but when i want to exit from the CAL FIL menu, on display the K2 Show a message INFO 230, and the receiver back to 1.0Khz sound and when exit from menu the filter back to 1.0khz also on display. Looking at manual INFO 230 is an error because i haven't connected the frequency counter on the BFO test poit (RF TP2). Is it absolutely neccessary? What is the right procedure? i have try to set the calibration using also the spectrogram softwareit works, but the K2 don't memorize my set... If i read the BFO control parameter now i see BF1t122c. where's my error Many thanks in advance Paul IK1QHB __ 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
[Elecraft] k2/100w power unstable
Hi folks I have end to build the KPA100 few days ago but there's a problem to fix. When drive my Titan 425 gold series with my K2/100 ( nø 5985) have unstable power control ( 20, 21, 23, 24, 19 watts), the grid current and output power jump up and down (tipically 800 to 1100w with 20w input) on every band, specially on 40 and 80m. When KPA100 is OFF i can see very little flutter on simple k2 at 5w... 0,1 0,2 watts of flutter on internal k2 wattmeter Seems not Feedback problem or similar, my antenna is a GP and Ros is perfect... Have read the mods by elecraft: http://www.elecraft.com/Apps/Power_Control_Mod.html Let me know if somebody have fix the problem with this or other mods.
