Re: [Elecraft] K2 Low AF Output

2012-05-18 Thread ka2zey
I also received a built K2 recently. Love the radio accept the speaker audio
is very raspy and distorted even at low volumes. I'll check my speaker as
well. I know that the ATU became unplugged when it was shipping. That would
have to be a pretty hard hit for that to happen.

Re: [Elecraft] Antenna for a KX1

2012-05-04 Thread ka2zey
I have tried the suggested lengths given for KX1. I have a 24' wire running
vertical up about 22' (the rest comes down to the KX1) and 2 16' radials
connected to the black connector on the Poloma Banana plug. I am able to get
a good SWR reading on 10 and 20 (still no contacts) but 40 is nothing below
4:1. Am I doing something wrong?

Another user posted that they were using 42' with a 1/4 wave radial for each
band. 

thanks,
D
