Robie, My K2 had the same problem that you described after a long period of not being used.  After severaldays of being left powered on  and daily use, the problem went away. My theory is that bypass capacitors in the K2 may have "reformed" and eliminatednoise in some circuit that was affecting

With no antenna I have a weak bird at 14.221.5 +/- ...Don't hear it on my other transceiver. I changed from switching ps to Old School ps and no change. Is this normal? BtW with my vertical antenna and present band conditions, it is totally inaudible with the antenna connected. _

Wes, FYI, my K2, S/N 7225, also has a faint birdie in about the same spot, but only with the antenna hooked up, listening to "white" noise. There are several birdies in all bands with no antenna, but I can only hear most of them with the AF and RF Gain pots maxed out. Most will disappear unde

Yes...I operated a K3s for several months with the 1st filter position open.  The K3 will need to be instructed that the position is open.  The free K3 utility software will help you do that.  When you set up the radio the first time, follow the manual for setup/calibration and you will find th

Jim – you may have to put the RF deck and PSU a bit farther than out of arms reach. I have my PSU on the other side of a nearby wall (in a utility/workshop room) and so that unit is completely quiet. With headphones, the RF deck fans can’t be heard, although I am considering relocating the dec

Afternoon all: I purchased the following items in hopes of setting up a portable QRP station/coms go kit of sorts with the Yaesu FT817ND, however I'm finding that work and family commitments leave me little to no time for the hobby. I also recently obtained a KX2 which also streamlines my QRP a

I don't know what you are missing but, when I was investigating the QSK keying characteristics of the TS-590S, I found a digital storage scope to be very useful. Traces showing key input to rig, amplifier keying output, RF envelope, and RX audio were very informative. At 30 wpm the first elem
