Colleagues,
I got some great advice from the list from my four questions
posted a couple of days ago...
I had asked what to do about the dead potentiometer and the
response was: MAIL ELECRAFT! I did. They responded immediately
that they would send me a replacement pot immediately at no
charge.
Scott, never ship electronics with a battery installed unless you disconnect
one lead from the battery so that there is not way it can energize in
shipment. DO NOT RELY
ON ANY!! SWITCH! We have shipped equipment all over the world and seen it
accidentally turn itself on through vibration or
Stuart:
You are absolutely right. I've already had one interesting
battery incident (not with the K2 or the K2 battery) and
that was more than enough for one lifetime!
Thanks for the note. I'll get that battery disconnected
and the terminals insulated before the trip.

Fellow Elecrafters:
K2 #4649 is alive! Actually, it has been alive for about a week
but I didn't want to declare victory until both CW SSB were
fully tested. (OK, 12m is still not working... but I'm getting
there!) I did have a few questions which I hope the
collective expertise of the list
The battery is very secure in its wrap around aluminum bracket. Just set the
internal battery switch to the off position to be safe.
I use a Samlex PS goosed up to about 14.5V (Adjust VR2, not VR1!) connected to
the normal power jack and all is well.
