[Elecraft] SSB OP1

okay, the filters are driving me nuts! lol..I've been listening on all the bands. Very good for just a wire tied to my clothes line. Ant being put up this weekend, weather permiting. However when I [Fil] cycle through them the OP1 will not allow me to tune any SSB so that I can understand

[Elecraft] no receive update / CW mode

I got my new RFC2 and installed it. Man did this radio come alive. Lots of noise on some of the bands but I heard something on all of them. I installed the DSP unit, built that up while waiting for the replacement choke. WOW the noise went away and all kinds of folks out there, and that with

[Elecraft] no K2 Receive

I think I have a receive problem. Just completed the last stage of the K2. I have a 20M receiver that is pickin up ssb on 14.250 ish... nice and strong. The K2 hears nothing. I have a MFJ-207 and I set it to generate a 14mhz signal and the K2 can find that signal..but its sitting right next to

[Elecraft] K2 audio

Just finished the test part II. Receiving rf, BFO and OSC in specs. I am not confident that I have audio output to a volume that is acceptable. Will that resolve itself in the last section? I have low impedence headphones pluged in. I will have a HM-12 ICOMM mic later. WB0OMR

[Elecraft] K2 TEST 1

I setup for test #1, turned on power...NOTHING. Luckily I am using a pwr supply that shuts down real fast on overload. I louped all the boards with a 10X loupe so I just went thru the parts placement. I had placed the F1 resettable fuse into the 10 aux pwr slot right above it!... moved it to

[Elecraft] K2 #6014 almost first pwr test

Finished the Front Panel, Control Panel, and first part of RF Board ready for the tests. Assembled and find I used the short spacers on the Front Panel so gotta correct that. Resistance checks show no shorts. Bought a 10X loupe and checked all solder joints for bad ones and touched up any I

[Elecraft] Front Panel Board K2 06014 wheres RP3 10K 8 pin

Ok, confused here. On page 28 of the Owners Manual it says to check off the items NOT installed. If I have the SSB kit, which I do, it says to install them now. RP3 has some issues.. it says its a 10k resistor network and is supplied in the SSB kit. The board shows it as an 8 pin inline part.
