[Elecraft] How Critical is R116's Value?

Hi to the List, I misidentified R116 and soldered it in the wrong place. I now have R116 with leads far too short to hold in L33 on the underside of the RF board in my K2. I can get locally either a 4.7 or 5.6 M Ohm resistor of the correct type. So would either of these be suitable as a

Re: [Elecraft] How Critical is R116's Value?

Gary, The value of R116 is not critical, it is used as an 'insulator' and not a resistor - go for any value higher than the original value. For the body to fit inside the center of the toroid it must be physically small. Most any high value 1/8 watt resistor will do a fine job. In fact,

[Elecraft] Yaesu FT-2000 v K-3?

I've never owned an FT-2000, but I can't help but wonder at the relatively high number of used FT-2000 radios offered for sale (eham.net, qth.com) - it sure seems that a significant portion of new owners are having issues with the radio. 73, Barry N1EU

[Elecraft] Thanks to all on the List

Hi to the List, I must say a big thank you to the you all for the advice particularly over the last week. I have now sorted the problem of R116 by using a 5.6 M Ohm resister. I have also now completed the Stage 2 Alignment. It's very nice to hear signals of all sorts on 40m. Now onto the PA

Re: [Elecraft] Yaesu FT-2000 v K-3?

There is a basic difference in the choice of IF frequencies. The Y2K main receiver has first IF at 69.45MHz, second at 450khz, and last at 30Khz for the DSP. The Elecraft has the first IF at 8.215Mhz and the second at 15Khz for DSP. This choice reveals a lot. There are many more choices

[Elecraft] 15 kHz IF out K3

One more questionf ro the five thousand on the FAQ. I see the BNC on the back for IF out, which will be the 8.+ MHz IF. The low IF is 15 kHz for the DSP. If one were to get the general coverage option, can the 15 kHz IF be routed, to the PC card out (maybe it is already), so the DRM can

Re: [Elecraft] 1.8kHz Filter?

Toby, I believe most (if not all) the 8-pole filters are INRAD designs. If there's a filter not listed on the Elecraft products page you should be able to contact INRAD after they begin posting them on their website. But give it some time as additional filter options have been added to

Re: [Elecraft] Yaesu FT-2000 v K-3?

Brian has some good points. Personally, I think the jump to 400-1000 Watts from 100 is so great that you really need to think of a separate amplifier. 100 W is clearly enough for 90% of QSOs (that I make, anyway), and it would be a shame to compromise a good 100 W transceiver package to

There's one more thing to consider. I contest at the 5W level, and work almost everything I can hear eventually. That being the case, 100w might let me work those stations a bit sooner, but once I've done that, those 100w won't help me hear any better. Gotta hear them to work them. Money spent
