Don,
That makes sense too, thanks.
I still would like to have an option of a tap off the low power drive before
the PA with the PA disabled when using an external transverter, so that I could
have the benefit of controllable low power with low wideband transmitted noise
and no heat problems
sure be nice to operate 600 meters if/when

During K3/100 testing, did you try the current-drain measurements with
CONFIG:KPA3 set to PA BYP? This may be lower than what you get with KPA3 set to
PA NOR and the POWER control set to QRP levels.

Ed,
One possible reason for your lack of satisfaction in external speakers
may be that they are all 8 ohm speakers.
The K2 audio amplifier does not have a lot of excess gain (that was by
design to limit the receive current). If you are to get a decent amount
of power out of it, the speaker

Hi Johnny,
You may try seeing what a choke coil in series with the audio to the

like it for CW.
In most cases, its cleaner than the available internal audio filters.
But I found that adding a 3mH coil and 15uF cap in series

Elecraft found a VERY good speaker for the K2. Don's advice about
looking for a 4 ohm speaker is also good -- virtually all loudspeaker
amplifiers have a VERY low output Z, typically 0.1
Then I should plan on using my Magneplanar SMGa's, because they are 2 Ohm
speakers. Except I don't have a K2. Dang.

I am currently using the Bose Companion2 Series 2. They sound really nice.
They are roughly 3in.x 7in. and dual inputs so I can have the radio and my

set of speakers. I think I got them on www.woot.com for around $70.
