Re: [Elecraft] K2 Builder (finisher) in EU wanted
Hi, I can recommend this guy honest and great friend...lets go to use my recommendation in communication with him if You want. Gerard Provoost [EMAIL PROTECTED] regards, Petr, OK1RP Hi Folks, I have just got a new job and most of my spare time has gone with it. My Basic K2 is complete and working well. I have completed the SSB board and 75% of the 100W PA. I would like to hire someone to complete this project for me as it is just collecting dust at the moment which seems like a waste of money. Due to the tax and shipping costs I would prefer someone in the UK, but EU would be fine too. Please contact me off list and we can talk more if you have time to help.

I want a separate receiver in the shack. Something to use as a backup. Something I can use to monitor my the TX signal from my K2 so I can hear what it is really doing. Features would include: - Medium size or larger controls. - General coverage SW receive (1.5 - 30 MHz) - 1 KHz display resolution. - Low noise, great sound so you can really tell what your TX signal sounds like. - AM / SSB / CW coverage - wide / medium / narrow filters - Low cost ($300) Nice to have includes - Analog S-Meter. - Memories - IF shift - External mute - Fast / Slow / Off AGC speeds - RF gain control - Synchronous AGC I guess I'm looking for a modern Drake 2B / R-4B but with full coverage. - Keith KD1E - - K2 5411 - ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Re: [Elecraft] Resetting K2?
Fred, be carefull with the K2 reset... My friend tried to make keying circuit for K2 to be able to keying his K2 from PC with diodes 1N4148 or so. After turning ON the K2 completelly crashed on there was not possible to do anything except the factory reset. After factory reset the K2 had BFO frequencies out of range, TX does not work etc. :( After going thru the BFO settings procedure seems that RX works well again but I do not know what happened with TX during the factory reset. (anybody know please?) So I can recommend to be carefull with factory reset as You can spend long time with re-alignment Your K2. 73, Petr OK1RP Původní zpráva Od: Fred (FL) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Předmět: [Elecraft] Resetting K2?

[Elecraft] K1 s/n 1031 on the air practice...
Dears, as my K1 s/n 1031 arrived on Fri last week I was happy to test it in the air during this weekend. When I unwrapped the double box I found something so small that I though its just dummy sample of real radio only and self radio will come later ;) How surprised I was when I connected the power and it receiving...hi. First quick check found that its K1-4 covering 40/30/20/15m with KAT1, KNB1 installed including the KST1. So except the KBT1 (which I will order in the future) its fully loaded baby...es expected. Radio seems to be clean and not damaged so first good news. BTW: I am happy that I was able to buy it builded already cause as I am relly overloaded over the week with business I would like to spend a little free time with on-air operation. I had the time to test on the air just in dark time so 15m was out. My first station I heard from jo60xj in Kostice, Czech Republic was JH6 on 20m then PY4 and many EU's. My first QSO I made after longer time of my replying to lot's stations. I was a bit flustrated for first few mins cause I was not able to catch nobody although the LCD bargraph shows 5W out. After 15mins of unsatisfactory operation was clear to me the reason the receiver is as good as I am calling with my poor antenna ( 20m sloper at 4m only ) only DX stations ! :) With my one evenning radio like RockMite on 40m I called stations not far away from me and I got reply very easily. Here I called PY4, ZL2, JH6...so its nothing special that I did not grabed them, hi. So my first QSO I made with AA3B on 20m with 5W output into the low sloper beaming to East in contest CQM. After I made another QSO's see log... 13.5.06 19:49U 14034.7AA3B 599/599 001/114 13.5.06 19:50U 14036.3W1MK 599/599 002/150 13.5.06 20:10U 14022.1KS1J 599/599 003/090 13.5.06 20:14U 14021.5K8GL 599/599 004/091 13.5.06 20:41U 14002.6K8PO 599/599 005/110 13.5.06 21:50U 14038.95B4AGC599/599 006/268 13.5.06 22:02U 14029.4N9RV 599/599 007/126 13.5.06 22:33U 10108.0EA6SX 599/599 14.5.06 20:34U 14009.9 W1MK599/579 Rob, MA KAT1 has problem on 40m to tune up as the Inv.V antennas as its arranged for 160m band and reactive part of feed point impedance will be high. 30-15m was not problem to tune up all my antennas. (i.e. Inv.V 2x38m linear loaded, double wires 20/15m low sloper) KNB1 filter helped just one time from five different situations I tested on the bands but it seems to be standard. Variable IF xtal filter sounds to me well specialy when 200Hz bandwidth selected although the stopband will not be high as sounded on the air. Audio makes a bit popclick efect when keying but it can be the alignment problem only I will see. Otherwise the receiver is very sensitive and extremly quiet with enough gain so its very comfortable operation. Finaly it seems that my new K1-4 works very well and will make lot of fun specialy on travelling, backpack, or camps. Great. 73, Petr OK1RP Petr Ouředník 00420608230010 (private) [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.qsl.net/ok1rp ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

RE: [Elecraft] List of Popular K2 User Modifications?
Don, thank You very much for very usefull link with the K2-mods list. I would like to ask if its possible to find somewhere the simillar list for K1 also? Thank You for help to all folks, Petr OK1RP Původní zpráva Od: Don Wilhelm [EMAIL PROTECTED] Předmět: RE: [Elecraft] List of Popular K2 User Modifications? Datum: 12.5.2006 00:20:40 Mark, Sverre Holm LA3ZA maintains the 'Unofficial' list of K2 mods - take a look at http://www.qslnet.de/member/la3za/K2/mod.html for the info. The list contains older mods that have been incorporated into the newer K2 design as well as a lot of other user mods. Select from those user mods carefully, and be certain that the benefit to be derived is consistent with your desires. As an example, my CW PTT mod is listed there, and while a benefit to some, it kills the QSK capability of the K2 while it is active and would not be desirable under normal situations. 73, Don W3FPR -Original Message- Having just completed my K2 and only recently been following the Reflector for K2 topics, I wondered if there was a popular list of user modifications which can be added to a K2 apart from Elecraft's standard boards. I hear about a screen for the crystal filters, for example. Any advice is appreciated and thank you all in anticipation.

[Elecraft] K1 s/n 1031 has new home
Dears, I am happy to throw up that K1-4 s/n 1031 has the new home in Czech Republic. Little baby arrived safely today morning and should be QRV 40/30/20/15m including the KAT1 and KNB1. Also I would like to many thanks to all who sent me info how to build the 160m band module specially to Don for complete instructions. I will try to make it asap to be able to work on my lovely TOP band soon. The most interesting idea now for me is how to implement another 2-bands nor 4-bands module permanently means to not need swapping the boards when will decide for other bands. I am totally confused with the band management in K1 but what could be the problem except the enough place inside? Does anybody thought about that please? I will be happy to make QSO with other K-syndrom infected folks. 72, OK1RP Petr Ouředník 00420608230010 (private) [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.qsl.net/ok1rp K1 #1031 (40-15m) SW20+ ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
