[Elecraft] K1 Drift less on wide VFO Setting???

Hi I have a K1 which works very well, I have it set for the 80KHz range on the VFO, I find that the drift is within spec, the first 5-10 mins is the worst at about 80-100hz after that it slows down but in a hour from cold is around 200hz, when warm it is very stable and no issue, I have just chan

[Elecraft] Size of K2 phone jack?

Anyone know the size of the phone jack in the K2? I can't find it anywhere in the manual. I know it's not 3/32", already wasted money on that size. Is it 1/8", 2.5mm, 3.5mm? Thanks! Mike, NJ2OM ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth

RE: [Elecraft] Size of K2 phone jack?

Mike, Although the K2 manual indicates that the supplied plug is 1/8 inch, I measured several of the ones which I can easily insert into my K2 jacks and find them to be 0.137 to 0.140 inches in diameter - and that is greater than 1/8 inch (0.125 inch) and very close to 3.5 mm (0.1378 inches). So

[Elecraft] Feed through capacitors

RE: [Elecraft] A K1 with a Tx offset all the time?

Paul, Follow the instructions in the manual page 47 for setting the Transmit Offset. The transmit oscillator in the K1 is separate from the BFO. You must adjust the transmit oscillator (C13 is the adjustment) so it will transmit at the same frequency that is being received. After setting the tr

Hello all, I installed my K6XX Indicator in my K1, but I mounted it in a different place. I mounted it with a piece of double-back tape on U1 on the front panel board. I also didn't use the 5-pin connector as I just soldered the wires onto the indicator board. This way the indicator is wiring is

Hi all. I have a few extra dolars and a cold apartment, and am ready to start on my K2. However, my funds do not extend to all the extras like the KPA-100, DSP, KAT, etc... so I was interested in knowing how extensive and difficult is the retrofitting of these modules vis a vis desoldering. Tha
