Re: [Elecraft] Let me build your K2
Indeed, I was fortunately able to have the time to build my K2, but since receiving the KPA100 in early July, I got very busy at work & have not yet completed it. It doesn't look as though it will be ready for the Worked All Germany contest in mid-October, which was my goal. As far as I can see, Alan is providing a really useful service to people who either are unsure of their constructional abilities or don't have enough spare time. The fact that he's built 100+ is a testament to what a nice kit it is to build. 73, Dave G3VGR K2 #4783 - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Sent: Monday, September 26, 2005 11:04 PM Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Let me build your K2 Hey Alan: Just ignore the negative comments on the reflector.

RE: [Elecraft] Let me build your K2
I appreciate Alan's occasional reminder of his available Elecraft building services. Alan recently upgraded my auction acquired K2 #2318 with SSB and IO2 to a revision B K2/100 adding the NB, DSP, PA100, 60M, and 160M modules. The upgrade job was complicated by the fact that the rig had been previously involved in a house fire and rescued by me from the charred debris through repeatedly cleaning the boards with alcohol and distilled water. I also had to replace the front panel, melted knobs, melted bezel, and melted buttons and scrub the soot blackened exterior. For about a year, I could smell a faint smoke odor every time I used the rig. A year and a half after my restoration to operable condition, the K2 stopped responding to computer control. I had seen Alan's e-mails and decided it was time to ask Alan for repair help and for the upgrades that I had been wanting for some time. Alan began to work almost immediately and kept me advised of his progress by e-mail as he repaired defects and built the upgrades. Working on the fire affected boards was difficult because each new solder point required recleaning. He finished the project promptly and charged very reasonable fees for his labor. My commercial surface mount technology rigs did not survive the fire, only the K2 because of its modular easy to work on design. I am greatful for Alan's services that again enable me to use my K2 fire survivor. The K2 worked FB QRO during last weekends CQ DX RTTY contest.

Guys - Let's end this thread. We're taking care of this off line. I am adding an addendum to the list guidelines that asks for commercial postings (including those for builders for hire) to be limited to one per month each to keep the signal to noise level reasonable on the list. In general we are strong supporters of our builders for hire. Those like Allan, W1HYV, who have built a large number of K2's and other kits for customers are providing a great service to the Elecraft community. 73, Eric Elecraft List Moderator. ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

My problem is that I had him filtered and don't see any postings from him at all any longer, but when people reply to his messages without his address in the header, I see it again. I just get tired of the repeated messages, whether it's Eric (not the Elecraft Eric) talking about how CW is useless for traffic passing or the other guy offering to build things every single week. Rather than complaining (which I'm doing now, sorry) I just have my mail program delete every message from them. On Mon, 26 Sep 2005, Phil LaMarche wrote: OR THE ABILITY...

> I would not let him build one because he begs entirely to much makes me > wonder what he is up to. I joined the list about eight months ago and he was advertising 90+ at that time so he's not wanting for work. Whether the messages are posted too frequently or not is up to Eric to decide. This is one of several "commercial" postings on this list that seem to be allowed by the rules and don't get too out of hand. I've purchased the Rework Eliminator modules and the customized bezels and nameplates that are advertised here from time to time. I think I've seen mention of people offering torroid winding services. It's probably one of those things where when you like the product being advertised it's no big deal. But if you, like me, can't understand why someone wouldn't want to build their own K2 without help, then the messages seem to come too frequently. :-) In the end, if I could convince someone to pay me to build K2's on the basis of my 1-unit experience, I'd be advertising here, too. :-) Craig NZ0R K1 #1966 K2/100 #4941 ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Maybe enough folks like his work that he is proud to offer the service? For what it's worth, when I was looking for a builder since I can not do the work due to physical contraints, Alan did the job for meand the rig has been running super since I got it (Serial Number 633). Now, if I could find someone who really likes to upgrade K2s and would do it for the parts cost for someone who can't physically do it. 73,Thom-k3hrn www.zerobeat.net Home of QRP Web Ring, Drakelist home page, Free Classified Ads for amateur radio, QRP IRC channel Elecraft Owners Database www.tlchost.net/hosting/ *** Web Hosting as low as 3.49/month ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
