Don't you just hate those guys who tell you about an article in a magazine
and they give the wrong year? ;)
Hints and Kinks, page 64, November 2004 has the description of the smd

Hi all,
I am Rolf, DK8SJ, a new member of this list. 3 weeks ago I got my K2 SN
5218.
Now I am in the stage "Alignment and Test, Part II".
All tests are within the range and I receive strong and stable signals
on 40m.
But I have a problem:
Tuning on the main-knob I have a continuous frequen
Thanks for the correction, Gil. I'm going to make one of these up
for my AADE LCII.

Had a grand time in the Stew Perry, 160, with 33 Qs and as many grids, all
in a couple hours...
what a time, when the bands are good, with a K2 at 2 watts, an inverted vee,
and a dipole, both at 35 feet.
Hope everyone had fun, and Merry Christmas too.

My AADE LCIIB came with a Kelvin clip used to measure SMD capacitors.
I see that AADE sells the clip separately for $15.00.

I have mine set up for 80 khz and have absolutely no problems with
temperature stability. In July for the FOBB, the top of my K1 got so hot I
literally could not comfortably touch it. I was engrossed in the contest and

Hi
Don’t get me wrong, the K1 is operating well within specs, its just not so
stable as the K2 or the KX1 I have in the shack. If anyone thinks theirs is
stable try this, feed the output of the K1 into a program that will allow a
waterfall display to be configured that allows about 1 hours worth o
Paul,
I would not regard 100 Hz of drift in the K1 as a design problem at all -
The K1 spec is for drift less that 200 Hz after a 5 minute warmup.
The fact that the K1 does not use a DDS vfo is not a 'design problem' as was
stated, but surely was a design decision based on price/performance with
Hello Ken, WA8REI, and all!
This is Ed, WA3WSJ. We had a great time up at Pulpit Rock on the AT in
PA. I only had around six QSOs because I was on 40m CW and there must
have been a RTTY contest as they were all over the band. My very first
QSO was with Carl, K1EYY in CT. Carl won the Polar Bear Cl

responding to the control voltages being fed to it.
First, re-check the PLL range to be certain it is correct - if it is
correct, then the PLL itself

When I try to run SSB on 80, 40 or 30m (the latter for
purposes of completeness only !) at power levels above
10 W but below 100 W I find the power control is not
working properly. There is no problem on CW, or above
14 MHz, or below 10 watts. S/N is 4509.
Here are some typical measured numbers b
Hello All-
Once again I'd like to tap this deep font of knowledge.
I've just completed the first alignment and test and everything
checks out except setting the AGC threshold.
When I put the probe of my DMM on pin 5 of U2 (a hellish place to get
consistent readings) and adjust R1
I have decided to sell a bunch of test equipment I've collected, it is not
professional by any means, but handy when you need it. I've used some of it
and some I never had a reason to use. I do not want to pack this stuff and
I want to sell as a package only for pickup in the Dayton, Ohio area. If
Good evening folks,
Even though the wind is howling, the temperatures are in the mid teens
(give me a break this is Oregon :), and the snow is falling Tom and I ran
the two nets and logged a few check ins. My hands are in sad shape this
week so the paddles got a little bloody from the crack
Please give Larry's K2 the correct SN. #811 is better than the brand new
rig I gave him. I agree, I like a rig that is broken in better than one
that smells of new plastic ;)

Tom, N0SS, was QSA 5 when you first called, and QSA 3 five minutes later.
That's 20 meters near sunset!
Keep warm. Keep well. Keep up the good works.
