Re: [Elecraft] Getting K2 fixed up and re-tuned?
I told him to look for Don in a direct email. He's up on the north side of Raleigh and does incredible work. KK4QDZ - Now with Extra Class Priv's, and a tiny KX3 to enjoy them!

Re: [Elecraft] Getting K2 fixed up and re-tuned?
Don W3FPR and Alan W3DVX come to mind (Don from his frequent contributions and counsel on this reflector, Alan from his "tuneup" of my K2 for its previous owner, who was apparently very satisfied with Alan's services.) There is also a comprehensive list of builders (some of whom do repairs and alignment) on Elecraft's website: http://www.elecraft.com/k2_builders.htm 73, Al On Fri November 7 2014 9:54:47 am Andy (KU7T) wrote: > Hi, > > > > I like my K2 (I have a K3 too), but have a few things I would like to get > fixed/tuned: > > > > . scratchy volume pot > > . amp's out is jumping around, maybe SWR bridge not aligned > right > > .

Hi Andy, Don, W3FPR comes to mind. He enjoys a first-class reputation.
