[Elecraft] KPA-100 low power problem on 17m..10m

I just finished the KPA100 for my K2 this week. The K2 and associated accessories were purchased within the last month. Without the KPA100, I get 10W or more on each band. Most bands provide about 15W, but 10M barely makes the 10W rated output with about 10.5W. I think the K2 is just fine.

[Elecraft] Lost Power out on K2

The first K2 I built has been working great for over a year. All of a sudden the best it would do is about 7/10 watt below 10mhz and nothing above. The 100 watt section has been removed and get the same results. Also getting HI CUR. My first guess would be final related. The nuts on the case

RE: [Elecraft] KPA-100 low power problem on 17m..10m

Rich, First question - is your KPA100 wattmeter properly calibrated? If not, this can be the single source of your problem. Second question - how are you determining power output? The K2 power display will be from different sources when you add and remove the KPA100. If you are relying on

Re: [Elecraft] Lost Power out on K2

H. Working now. Not sure why ! Everything looks good. Might be wise to get a new set of thermal pads for the finals as they are looking a little frazzled after a few bottom cover removals. Guess we will just have to keep an eye on it. Thanks, Rich kd0zv - Original Message -

[Elecraft] K2, Audio Hiss

I was listening to 40 meters late last night (virtually no one there so I had some time to fool around with the rig) and noticed the level of audio hiss in the K2. With RF gain off completely and AF gain fully advanced, there is a fair amount of hiss. This is also noticeable at operating levels

RE: [Elecraft] KPA-100 low power problem on 17m..10m

Don Thanks for the reply. I have a pretty decent Daiwa power meter. It tracks very well on the other bands and matches the displayed power output of the K2. I think the power level displayed by both the K2 and the Daiwa meter are correct. I do have a decent scope that I could use to verify

[Elecraft] How much is the DMM used during K2 build?

Hey guys, here's the next (of many) questions. How heavily used is the DMM during K2 building? I just finished my first two mini-modules and used the DMM only a little - for resistance checks. I've scanned through the K2 manual and it looks like a DMM is used here there for resistance checks

RE: [Elecraft] KPA-100 low power problem on 17m..10m

Rich, Yes, it is easy to scan the KPA100 LPF with the MFJ259 or any other antenna analyzer - and that would be the first step. Remove the AUX RF connector from the K2 RF Board and insert a 51 ohm resistor leads into the connector going to the KPA100 - then connect the analyzer to the SO239

Re: [Elecraft] K2, Audio Hiss

Idiom Press makes an external SCAF-based audio filter that does an excellent job of eliminating hiss, among other things. The web site http://www.idiompress.com has demo .wav files. The Standard Disclaimer does NOT apply in this case... 73, - Rob W7GH K2 #5004 On Fri, 17 Mar 2006

RE: [Elecraft] K2 Dual Recieve Plans - Comments Wanted

Folks, I may be missing something here, but with my understanding of SO2R operation, one would not want to mute the receive K2 so that you could scan for other stations while the transmit K2 is CQing or doing some other semi-automated transmit task. In this situation, the solution would be to

RE: [Elecraft] QRP freq?

Hi Dave, I usually check the band up from the bottom, with a careful tune started about 3555 to 3565. And I like to check about the time sunrise or sunset starts across the country, but especially near my own greyline, currently. I've heard it said that on 80, there are a number of stations

RE: [Elecraft] K2 deaf

Cary, I don't have any really good ideas about what may be wrong (other than to simply say its broke G), but I suggest that you turn the manual to Appendix E and follow the steps outlined in the Receiver Signal Tracing section. As another alternative, you can try the Cheap and Dirty Signal

[Elecraft] K2 ultimate rejection

Looking at the Rob Sherwood's receiver data table http://www.sherweng.com/table.html I discovered a remarkable fact: the K2's weakest point is the FILTER ULTIMATE REJECTION. Sherwood says it is 80 dB only (and there are two K2s) and it was confirmed by one of our top grade contesters and
