Garry,
You don't need WWV to do the "N6KR" method - you can use any reference
signal of known frequency and accuracy. Subtract the BFO frequency from
the VFO frequency and that should be the frequency of your reference -
if it is not, then adjust C22 until that condition is true.. With WWV

Thank you Don. I think the most confusing part of all was, I was
looking for various width settings for the ssb filters. Eventually I
came to realize that I had to use the other filters for reduced
bandwidth for ssb. After that dawned on me it was relatively easy.
Or perhaps I still have not g
LS,
Great progress. Congratulations.
Make note that the 4.000 MHz reference oscillator setting that is
correct may differ slightly from exactly 4.000 MHz - so don't exhaust
too much effort on getting it 'right on' using any kind of measuring
device - there is a better way.
After you have your
Ok, thanks for the info gentlemen.
I finally ran out of capacitors and resistors last night (thank goodness!)
and seem to be in the last stages of building the transmitter and low pass
filters for the rest of the bands. So I guess it's getting close to being
done. Need to resist the urge to rush n
Garry and all - at least those who are building new K2s.
Yes, the filter setup is a bit "tricky", especially when using filter
widths wider than 1.00 kHz. The reason is in the varactors that have
shipped with the more recent K2 kits. What that means is that a filter
width that is indicates as
Congrats on the K2 receiving on 40. It's only a month or so back that I
finished mine so easy for me to remember the thrill of hitting the switch
and having it come up working. I used mine on cw for a week or so then went
on to the ssb board which allows digital modes as well as phone. Still

I'll add hearty congratulations as well. L33 is indeed the tricky part
(don't ask me how I know, but Don's advice to re-heat suspicious solder
joints comes to mind) and you've done well to leap this hurdle. You'll be
golden from here on!

Congratulations on your success. I remember how excited I was last year

Hi all,
In case anyone's interested, I got through with test and alignment II on my
K2 last night. Everything seemed to proceed normally.
Again, I didn't seem to run into any trouble. My first kit and all I'm
expecting to have busted something but so far all OK (even the install of
L33 hi hi). M
