Good morning all I have seen some postings of EXPERT 1k users here on the reflector, I need your help. A friend has a K3 and a P3. Now he wants to connect his EXPERT PA to this combo. The problem: The K3 RS232 is occupied by the cable to P3, both P3 RS232 are occupied by Cables to k3 and PC. Becau

Dennis, have a look at this site. http://www.kuhne-electronic.de/index.php?id=14&L=1 The experts say, his transverters are top of the list. For his personal station he is using a K3 and he tells all his customers, that there is no better equipment available. 73 de Peter, DL2FI > -Ursprüng

Brian, Over the years I had about 3-4 K2 on my workbench being so deaf. All of them had T7 on the RF board installed reversed. Check T7 if the green winding (5 turns) really is soldered to the solder lugs numbered 1 and 2. If you reverse this transformer, you will miss about 20 dB gain. 73 de Pete
