My K2 has the 2nd latest chip set in it. It is a 3200 s/n. I have been using it on SSB at 12W. I have the audio compressor on max. I have had hours of great QSO's so far. I know see an option to open up the SSB filter on RX. I use the stock 2.2khz and I like the audio. I find the 1.8khz

Greetings All, Ok, I want to build a balun. It should be able to handle 200 Watts RF (safety factor built into this number), 80 thru 30 Meters (160M would be nice) and be efficient. I want to use a Toroid to do this so it fits inside an enclosure. My question is how small of a toroid can I use

All the hard work of balun design has been done in the balun kit offered by The Wireman, Landrum S.C. (on web). I believe Amidon might also have Balun kits and both fit the power range you want. Typically, it is hard to get one balun to work 160m to 10m. See the Jerry Sevick books, (Baluns

Julius, Off hand, without doing the design, I'd say something on the order of one F-140-43 or two F-114-43. You can't get there with a T-XX-6; not enough umph. Takes F-XX-61 at the least. Why limit it to 160 to 30 meters? The BL-1 covers 160 through 6. See
