Great story, Leigh. Being from Southern California, originally, I can
attest to how hard it is to work Europe from there -- well, at least
compared to how easy it is from the Eastern U.S. Doing it with a couple
of watts and an ad-hoc antenna is that much more rewarding!

Many thanks to all those who responded to my mail.
I was trying to find from those who were using the K2 VOX, their experiences,
and see if they were similar to mine. Without referring to individual mails
the
comments fell into these main categories.

Hi,
I have built KX1 (0156) at first and I love it very much.
A very short time later I build K2 (4288) which became my primary transceiver
know, beside my FT-857 and TS-870.
I am planning to add KPA-100 option to it know.
I am not using my KX1 any more because of my disabilities, therefore I
Thank you to all those who offered advice on my transmitter alignment problem.
It turns out that I had tuned according to the lower power peak for each
capacitor, hence the low power output. After scrambling the settings and tuning
again, I found a different combination for the inductors, and no

following the procedure carefully, I put the radio in tune mode, and
properly tuned the inductors for the 30m band. I got a reading of p3.1. I

A couple months ago someone asked about different capacitors and their use
in the Elecraft products. I think this all started when someone was doing a
mod or upgrade and wanted to know if a certain type of capacitor he had in
his junk box would work. There were numerous responses but this mont
Have others noticed less RX sensitivity on the KX1 on
20M as compared to 40M and 30M?
I recall that this was noted in the QRP Quarterly review
of the KX1 a little while back and I have also noticed this
on my own rig, so I am guessing that this is normal.
Sensitivity is still sufficient on 20M b

To be honest I had not even considered that. I have my KPA100 installed
with the KAT100 in an EC2 case.
Looking at the clearance left by the KPA100 in the EC2 case I doubt that
there is enough head room above the KSB2 if the amplifier were mounted in
the K2.
There are precious few

That sounds like a really worthwhile project.
Please keep us informed of your progress.
I might actually want to fire up my KSB2
with such an "option" to help it out.

Guys,
I am amazed how dense the K2/100 really is when you take off the right cover to
check to see if the cables are pinched.
A suggestion would be to use double sided sticky tape and stick on on the
KPA100 shield with some sort of header pins to unplug it when you remove the
KPA100. Place

Wondering if anyone has actually used a set of 8 of the (Size AA) Energizer
2100 mah NiMH / Rechargeable batteries in the KBT1 for a K1? I just happen to
already have 8 of these batterys prior to installing the KBT1 in my K1. I was
just wondering if they will fit the KBT1 ok.

too much power for the power transistor to handle? I could tri
