Re: [Elecraft] Selling my K2

2012-12-13 Thread Stephen Victor
Gil-
If you just do CW portable, why not get a KX1 with the included paddles?   Much 
less expensive than the KX3.  And you can keep your K2!   Why sell something 
that you put so much into?
 
With the K1, I carry three items, a battery, the K1, and my paddles.
With the KX3, I'll have only one, using the attached paddles. That also
means a Pelican 1200 case Instead of the 1400 I use for my K1... I can
also use the KX3 at home like I do my K2. It's quite a bit more money
for me, but if I also sell my Icom IC-271A, I'll be getting close ;-)

[Elecraft] K2: CAT control of K2/100 with HRD

2011-04-18 Thread Stephen Victor


Hi
My K2/100 has been functioning well, and I am now trying for the first time to 
use the connection on the 100W amplifier unit for CAT control with Ham Radio 
Deluxe.   The K2 is serial number 6679, so apparently no modifications are 
needed.  The side-tone works.  I fashioned the cable as per instructions (and 
there is continuity where there should be), turned on the port function on 
the 
K2, set the baud rate on HRD to 48,000.   However, the HRD is unable to read 
the 
frequency. 

Am I missing something obvious?  Is some driver needed, or some further 
modification to the K2 or amplifier circuitry?

Thanks and 73

Hi Ken
I'm sorry.  I meant 4800.  And the HRD does match.  
Also- am using Windows XP, with a computer that successfully used HRD with a 
different radio.
But this time I installed the newest build of HRD.
Thanks and 73

Hi Steve:
I think you have the baud rate wrong. The K2 is 4800, (not 48,000) if I 
remember 
correctly, and HRD must match.

[Elecraft] KPA500 with K2?

2011-01-25 Thread Stephen Victor
Will the automatic bandswitching function on the KPA500 work with the K2?  Or 
only with the K3?

[Elecraft] KPA500

2010-10-20 Thread Stephen Victor
Was wondering if the KPA500 will be available as a kit (like the K2), or with 
prebuilt boards like the K3.
Thanks
