[Elecraft] OT: K2
I had recently stopped monitoring the reflector as I only have a K1 and two K2's. Everything is K3 and subject lines rarely reflect that anymore so it's hard to filter them. But I had a K2 problem and rejoined. Got a response with solution within an hour! And discovered that I miss the OT discussions from a unique bunch of experts. Most of the OTs are interesting and more relevant to a non-KX/K3 owner. So I'm back to monitoring only OTs. hi. The new products don't fill any need in my hamming that isn't satisfied by the K2, but the ongoing development of the state of ham art at Elecraft is extraordinary to see.

[Elecraft] ] OT: K2
Hello Eric, Please stay with the reflector. Folks here are helpful and civilized. Opposite opinions can be expressed here without too much firing back (even you criticize elecraft). Occasional OT is also allowed.

Re: [Elecraft] OT: K2
Eric, I do repairs, alignment and calibration and upgrades of the Elecraft legacy gear (K2, K1, KX1 and XV series transverters), and I am as busy as I want to be (sometimes more than I want to be). So there is still a lot of interest in that gear, but you are right, most of the posts are about the K3, KX3 and KX2. Non-the-less, there are frequent posts about the legacy gear. Many of the older posts about "how to do ..." are no longer seen, but those questions do pop up occasionally. Many of the K2, K1 and KX1 posts come from folks who have purchased a used transceiver. In many cases, they did not get all the associated pieces (counter probe for the K2, connecting cables for the KAT100, power cables, etc.) so those new owners need assistance, and they do often post to the reflector. 73, Don W3FPR On 9/20/2016 2:35 PM, Eric J wrote: I had recently stopped monitoring the reflector as I only have a K1 and two K2's.

Re: [Elecraft] OT: K2
Hello Don, You may never know how many folks you have helped-out who are K2 owners. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I didn't finish my K2/100 until very recently, serial number 0086.four years after I retired! So, as you know, I had to do lots of mods. I think I got them all. Your posts got me through several issues, including the keying wave-form mod, alignment of the crystal filter (I used the newer crystals based on your post about this--a big difference in my case), the power output instability problem (which led me to the Elecraft mod on this).and some more stuff I don't recall now. I don't think there was one issue that I searched on that didn't include a response from you. All your advice was dead on, too. Anyone wanting to build K2 has a resource on this reflector in your advice. Thanks for all your advice and easy to follow instructions. I guess K2 is a legacy radio but it will out perform all those up-conversion radios, hands down. Sweet sound too.

[Elecraft] OT - K2 Keyer problems
Recently I had my K2 (#2511) upgraded with the A to B mod kits. I have had some odd experiences with it since then. When I get up each morning I need to stoke the fire to warm the house up. Sometimes the morning temperature is in the high 40s (F). Normally it is in the low 50s range. Not long after breakfast, both mine and Sam's, I am on the air working into Oklahoma. The shack temperature today was 55 when I started. My keyer was set at 23 wpm but the speed kept jumping all over the place. The display would show the new speed but only after I had flubbed a few characters due to the speed change. It would drop to 19 or jump to 28 wpm randomly. By the end of the contact (60 minutes) the shack temperature had risen to 58 and the variations had lessened somewhat but they were still occurring. Do you, or anyone else, know what may cause these random speed variations? Is it the new firmware, the temperature, or some random thing? 2.04P 1.09 is the reading at start up to give you some idea of the firmware version. Before the upgrade it would jump very rarely. Now it jumps more often. However, due to the change in seasons the rig is going through larger temperature cycles than it had been. I am nowhere near the wood stove so it does get pretty chilly back here. Once I take down my Christmas tree I'll move back up into the front room but for now I need some way to limit the speed cycling. Should I turn the rig on an hour before I get on the air to help it stabilize? Cover it with a tea cozy? Put a space heater under it? Take down the tree and move near the wood stove? Or could it be something which changed with the upgrade? Any advice would be kindly appreciated, Kevin.

Re: [Elecraft] [OT] K2 & Navigator Interface
I made my own cable. I used the 1/8" stereo plug for the RCV audio, and I believe I use a 1/8" mono for the TX audio because I have one of the Heil microphone adapter cables that breaks out the Keying and TX audio ckts to seperate 1/4" & 1/8" jacks accordingly. Made it pretty simple versus having to wire up a mic plug and switch that out all the time. I use a series of 1/8" & 1/4" (RadioShack) Y adapter cables and have my Heil headset hooked up all the time as well as the audio cables from the Navigator. Actually I have to disco the TX audio plug from the headset to eliminate the open microphone on TX while using the Navigator. I used stereo and mono cables from Radio shack that were already made up. I just cut them in half and used which ever half had the right connector on it and soldered them all in to a DB25 male connector. Turned out kind of professional looking. That is probably the expensive route to go, but it still didn't cost the 48 bucks that US Interface wants for a made up cable. Since I was using the Heil microphone adapter cable, I would have had to modify their cable anyway.

[Elecraft] OT: K2 Manual cover falling off
so I've been using my K2 manual a LOT lately and the cover is starting to fall off - the holes are tearing out. Anybody know of a good way to protect it from falling off completely?

Re: [Elecraft] OT: K2 Manual cover falling off
Try your local office supply store, like Staples. They have the ability to create spiral-bound manuals. They could probably disassemble your manual, laminate and re-punch the cover, and assemble it again. I had some similar work done and it was surprisingly cheap. 73, Dennis NJ6G On 10/18/2011 7:03 AM, TJ Campie wrote: > so I've been using my K2 manual a LOT lately and the cover is starting to > fall off - the holes are tearing out.
