[Elecraft] kx1 r30 mod / max power question

I finally did it and put a 330 in place of the 220 for R30. It made all the difference. I can not get 2W on internal battery. My only concern is that on external gel cell power I sometimes get max power of between 4 and 5 W Is this too much power for the power transistor to handle? I could

Does somebody could tell me if there is a way to know who own a K2, especialy the one living around me: all VE2 and VA2 here in the province of Quebec. I forgot the place, but I saw a list in the past, that people owning a Elecraft product should put there name there 73

[Elecraft] Transverter question

I'm helping a friend out who bought a 222 transverter from Elecraft but wants to use it with his TS850S. The 850 will only go down to 9 watts and the Elecraft wants a max of 8 watts, any help out there??? Gregg R. Lengling, W9DHI, Retired Administrator http://www.milwaukeehdtv.org K2/100 S#3075

Re: [Elecraft] Transverter question

I don't have an 850S, but you could try an external negative dc supply (say -9v to 0v) on the radios ALC input. That should vary the output from zero upwards. Most of the Kenwood range have a Din socket transverter port on the rear apron which outputs a couple of milliwatts or so although I

Re: [Elecraft] Tuning knob dimple

Art and all, Tnx, to everyone who responded. I should have known Elecraft would pick up on the finger dimple, but I was off the reflector for several months and lost track of what was going on. Excuses, excuses. 73, W1CG At 01:04 PM 8/20/2004, Art-W6KY wrote: Hi Chas, How about

I build up my K2 for 2004 Field Day. It's a great radio and I really like it, but except for portable/field use the knobs, buttons are too small for my meat hooks. I've been a QRO contester (mainly because I like running strings) and I guess I'm gonna sell my K2, FT847 and a couple of others

Re: [Elecraft] Transverter question

Hi If the Kenwood has a low level transverter output then you can set up the jumpers for 0 to 1 MW input. Another option would be to build a 50 ohm 3 db power attenuator on the output of the Kenwood. There are several designs in the back of the ARRL handbook. The low level out is the best way

Re: [Elecraft] Transverter question

I was so surprised Lyle that I have just downloaded the manual to see for myself :-) Sure enough, no transverter port! It does have the usual linear amp switching though including ALC input (remote connector pin 6). I personally find this a more elegant solution than the attenuator as well

Re: ES5MC from Central California with KX1

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! 73, Wayne N6KR On Aug
