Hi Gang,
I have a new-to-me KAT100 I'm trying to get working. It is connected to the
same PS as the K2/100. K2 PORT is ON. Known good PS cable. KAT100 appears
dead, K2/100 ATU menu setting will not change. Control cable from previous
owner who says it was working.
What am I missing?
Thanks

I agree, the K1 is also a great lttle rig! I built mine after very invasive

Dear K2 Wizards:
I bought a K2 from a friend's (WA6OCP, SK) estate, and had a 100w lid built
into it by Dave, W8FGU) who also gave it a full checkout and realignment. I've
now got well over 10 hours of TX time on it, and according to the manual the PA

My problem is
This worked fine, the K2 at .3w, the KXPA100 at 30-something watts, the
KPA1500 at 1400w, keyed simultaneously with an RCA Y-cable, as shown in the
KXPA100 manual.
My K2 at full throttle to KPA1500 direct put out 550w. Lots of fun, but
too many ways to blow something(s) up to do every day.
Next
The KXPA100 MANUAL SHOWS THE ability to use a Y rca keyline cable, one end
going to a kxpa100, the other going to an external amp, in my case a kpa1500.
Will this work? Caveats?

Dear Gang:
I have several old auxbus cables, the type that is about 3/8" thick, and
has a bend radius of about 1/4 mile. Several pins are missing. The cable
clamping thumbscrews are not secured, and can float free in a zero-G
environment.
I have other AUXBUS cables that are thin, have nice ergo
My K3 #2545 has been exhibiting some very intermittent odd behavior
lately. In CW QSK mode, when I hit the paddles, it goes into tx normally,
but the receiver appears to stay muted and there is no audio, nor any
indicatio of band noise on the S-meter. It will continue to tx normally,
and the red
I am also a big fan of the PortaPaddle and PortaPaddle II, using it with
all Elecraft portable rigs. It weighs nothing, is nearly indestructible,
and is well made.

I would like to see the use of change bars, highlighted text, or at least a
change summary in each new release of the online manual--at least after the
early rapid changes settle down.

I really liked ALL of the elecraft presentations, and most of the others.
Wayne's had a particularly intimate feel to it, which was very different,
whereas Eric's was still great, just a more formal, polished approach.
Dave's journey into the classic line was very entertaining.
I am very frustrate
Hi gang,
Has Eric's Q&A session from the virtual hamfest been posted anywhere? I
can't find it on the virtual hamfest site or the Elecraft youtube channel.

fix was grounding the splitter where the cable came into my house, but I also
ran some new RG6 from the splitter to the cable modem and replaced the cheap F

For simple, small, portable-friendly speakers, I used various models of
iHome speakers (I used to carry a pair for emergencies when I gave a lot of
presentations, and they would actually fill a room albeit at a whisper
level. The "emergencies" became so frequent I began lugging my small bass
amp).
I agree with Joseph. I have been able to bust pileups on recent

don't have antennas on those bands. The SWR was 10:1 on my 80/40 vertical,
and even though I was blissfully aware of the high voltages in the tuner,
and the loss
