[Elecraft] [K2] [KAT2]

Hello group! I'm putting together my KAT2 and having trouble with the Bridge Null Adjustment (pg 16). When I first went through it, it worked fine until step four on page 17, where I got well over the specified 3 or 4 volts. So I pulled it apart, checked everything, and reflowed T1. Now

[Elecraft] [K2] ATU

Hello group, I'm needing a tuner for use with my K2, and wanted to know the pros and cons of the KAT2 vs. the T1. Is the only difference that the T1 is stand-alone and the KAT2 is internal? Thanks in advance for your advice. 73, Kristina KE7LUC

Re: [Elecraft] Elmer Request

Hi there, I'm not an elmer but I just wanted to drop a note that torrids aren't really that hard to wind. Just stick the wire through the hole the specified number of times, then strip the leads by passing them through a blob of solder on your soldering iron. I found it to be quite easy

[Elecraft] 40 meter TX alignment for K2

Greetings to all, I know this question has been asked on here before, but unfortunately I didn't pay attention to what was said, and I can't seem to find it in the archives. I was attempting to do the 40 meter alignment but when I pressed tune (after setting the power for 2.0 W) it wasn't

Re: [Elecraft] Dead K2-now lives!

Many thanks to all who replied to my question. What happened was that while I was putting T4 on, I overheated the 7-8 winding and it melted through the insulation of the 3-4 winding, therefore shorting it. So I just rewound it and it works! Thanks again! 73, Kristina KE7LUC

[Elecraft] Dead K2

Hi all, In building my K2 everything has gone perfectly and without a hitch until I got to the Alignment and Test, Part III. When I try to turn it on there's an audio pop but nothing on the LCD display and no relays clicking. It worked just fine before I installed the transmitter part.

Re: [Elecraft] Dead K2

Nothing I can see looks to be shorted. And yes I checked the collectors of Q7 and Q8 and it was 1.6 k ohms, so the problem doesn't seem to be there. I'll go fiddle with it some more. Kristina, KE7LUC On 5/24/07, Don Wilhelm [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Kristina, It sounds like you have created a

Re: [Elecraft] Dead K2

OK, here's what I've done so far: checked the resistance from the power plug to ground, the meter read infinite resistance. Also checked the voltage at the same and got 12 volts. Then I measured the voltage at the cathode end of D10 and got 12 volts with the power switch on and off, but at D12 I

[Elecraft] Mic for K2

Hello all, I am needing a mic for my new K2. So I was wondering if anyone had one that they aren't using anymore and would part with? Reply off list if you have any thing. Thanks! 73, Kristina, KE7LUC ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to:

[Elecraft] Resistance Checks-Front Panel

Hi all! I just finished building my front panel and had some problems with the resistance checks. On J1 pin 1 through pin 7, also pins 13 14 the meter registers absolutely nothing. All of the rest of them are just fine. Anyone have any suggestions?? Thanks, Kristina

[Elecraft] Inventory

Hi all, I was recently doing inventory on my new K2, and on page 5 of the RF section I found a slight discrepancy. In the description of RFC4, RFC5, RFC8, RFC9, and RFC7, it says they have green bodies. However mine have the same color bands but have tan bodies. Will this make any
