The diode voltage dropping trick sounds like a very 'safe' method to me.
One can even switch out the diodes when the battery voltage falls. I have
used this technique many times, but not with the particular batteries you

I have been using a 3-cell 2100 milliamp Li-Poly with my KX1 and am pretty
pleased with it, but would consider using a 4 cell if shown it is safe (or a

out if it works using MY KX1 either... :>)

Thats correct, David. We should ask Eric if it´s possible to provide us with

Lots of people would like it. It´s the same with the famous HexKey: I like

I sold my MH2 a while back as it seemed totally out of character with the K2
even with the Elecraft label. It was way too large, had PTT switch that took
a lot of pressure to operate, and had too stiff a coiled cord.
The K2 also allows for function buttons on the mic to switch VFOs. It would be

Thanks Wayne..I was just telling Nigel I'd like to mount it in the battery
compartment if there is room. I have the Palm Peg-legs so the front of the
rig will be tilted up so I could hit the buttons when necessary.

Fred,
As Eric indicated, the K2 microphone configuration header can be
plugged/wired to work with most any microphone having an 8 pin mic plug.
Obtaining a microphone is easy - if you want to go the inexpensive route,
pick up a CB microphone, they are plentiful and if it doesn't come with an 8

Nigel did an amazing job with his T1 installation, but you might
consider a far simpler alternative. Not as well integrated, but it may
suffice for your needs.

What that means is that you did not pick a shipping method. We use $999

Nice job Nigel...I'm glad you included the FT-817 module too. Thanks!

WOW! I just put a T1-K and a T1-FT817 in my shopping cart on the Elecraft

Hi Fred,
The manufacturer of the MH2 microphone discontinued that model and we
have been looking for a replacement. We are in discussions with another
manufacturer now for a replacement hand mic, but it will be a couple of
months before we can get it in.
Fortunately we designed the K2 and KS

Hi Robert,
I have a MacMini - OSX 10.4.6 with dual Keyspan USB/serial ports and an

I use MacLoggerDX on one serial port for logging and rig control and

fine piece of software -- It is versatile and full-featured,
I am Mac user (10.4.6).

I'd prefer the "K3" to be a fully functioned base HF radio, dual receive,
built in PSU-Amp-ATU, FSK etc etc. You could always have VHF as an optional
