Don, As always, thank you for that detailed information. I do have a set of 2.04r firmware to install as I go through my A-to-B mod list. Best regards, Mike M. KU4QO On Fri, Nov 3, 2017 at 9:39 AM, Don Wilhelm wrote: > Mike, > > Order the SMT1B - PIN diode on carrier board p/n E120014 from Elecr

Mike, Thank you for your compliments. No, I cannot draw the schematic from memory, but I am quite familiar with the schematics and manuals for the K2, K1, KX1 and XV series transverters.  I keep printed copies of the schematics handy at my office computer and the workbench that I have to re-pr

Mike, Order the SMT1B - PIN diode on carrier board p/n E120014 from Elecraft and mount it as shown on page 60 of the latest K2 manual. Note that you also will need to have MCU firmware at 2.04. If yours is lower than that, also order FWK2MCIO. The current firmware is 2.04r, and if you are deal

I'd like to update my K2 (SN 336) with the keying mod to reduce CW bandwidth. The doc from Elecraft specifies a PIN diode that is obsolete and no longer available (5082-3081). I'm not sure what specifications are important to spec a replacement part. Any suggestions for a suitable replacement, or

Ken, Yes, it is the proper part. It has 3 holes, but only 2 are used (pad 1 is not used). Download the latest K2 manual and look on page 60 to see how to install it. 73, Don W3FPR On 11/8/2014 8:00 PM, Ken Miller K6CTW wrote: All, I ordered the part I was told to order as the PIN diode is

All, I ordered the part I was told to order as the PIN diode is no longer available along with the rest of the keying mod kit. The part I ordered is E120014 BAP64-05 It is a surface mounted part that appears to have 3 connections. Did I order the wrong surface mount part? If this is the

Ken, The Elecraft kit for the K2 Keying Waveshape mod is no longer available because the small PIN diode to be used at RF Board D36 is no longer available as a leaded component - however an SMD solution is available, read on if interested. I do recommend that the mod be installed when the KP

All, Now that I want to add some power to the K2 so that it could become a full backup station (instead of just my QRP contesting rig) I find that I may need to do some additional things to the rig. My K2 (serial # 455) does have most of the mods in it but one that I didn't do was the keying mo
