Good Evening,
Once again I draft this epistle as the day is swiftly waning. This
first day of Autumn was busy. I got quite a number of things checked off
my list. A few more of Ms. P's antiques are getting ready for their spot
in the house. My nephew and I dragged boxes from the
Hi all:
Well, before this thread is terminated by the moderatorI really
know what the military folks are talking about, even though I never
partook.
One year, I decided that it would be cool to copy using a typewriter,
so I started over learning the code in sync with typing. And it I
Doug,
I'm glad someone else confirms the weird mental state (I like your
description as Zombie Copy) and yes I am trying to keep this related to
Elecraft so now back to the KXB3080 module build.

Very good reflector. Most push G4FON software and The Art and Skill of
Radio Telegraphy, both avalable on the reflector web site.

Hello everyone,
I have a ZM-2 and a BLT tuner which I connect to an end fed wire of 33
feet length. Most of the antenna is outside, but it is only 10 feet
above ground. I am using an inside counterpoise of 23 feet, mainly for
30M and works well on 40M too. The K-1 is for 20/15M.
I notice
The K1 (and QRP version of the K2) indicates output by measuring the RF
voltage at the antenna jack (unless you have the Elecraft tuners built in,
which I assume you don't since you are using an outboard tuner).
The RF voltage varies according to the RF power output AND it varies

By the way...one last point that I don't think has been mentioned
(probabaly because it is obvious?).
You can copy CW much better using headphones than via a speaker. The
faster, the more important.

Hi gang,
Now that we're at the bottom of the solar cycle, I'd like to be able to run
more than five watts on occasion, but not at the expense of putting my final PA
at risk. What is the highest level of RF output power that a K2, QRP version,
can run on CW without putting the finals at risk?
Hello.
I am building K2 #5731 and I have run into two problems. The first, and most
serious, is in VCO alignment. When moving L30, the voltage at the left end of
R30 does not change from 8.03vdc. I have been through the entire range of L30,
very carefully, with no change. I pulled out T5
Jeff,
The max power output from the K2 (or any transceiver) depends on dissipating
the heat from the PA as well as the length of time the PA is producing
output. The K2 will develop more power on some bands than others just due
to the gain of the transmit stages vs. frequency.
I for one would

Fellow Elecrafters:
I have a strange problem with my K2/100 on 80 meters.
The situation is as follows:
I work QRP DX at the low end of 80 M, (say 3508 kHz or thereabouts)
with a requested power of 4.5 watts, and get an indicated 5 watts out.
I then check into the Pine Tree Net on 3596 kHz
