Re: [Elecraft] Update: K2 # 0771

2005-02-27 Thread Larry Phipps
Due to the huge number of projects I'm in the middle of, I decided I don't have time to build a kit, so I bought a used K2, serial # 568. It already has some updates, and it will cost me about $100 to add the remaining updates and mods I think are important. That's amazing. The first thing I

[Elecraft] Update: K2 # 0771

2005-02-27 Thread Steve Jackson
Elderly, but mojo-filled and fully loaded K2 #0771 has received new updates of T1 and T2 from the Toroid Guy, and new crystals in both the SSB and CW filters. Results? A fabulous radio made even better ... which is mighty hard to believe, but it's so. Better stop-band rejection, better inter-fil

Even the second receiver has a big influence on how your signal sounds. At present I am building my version of a wideband monitor receiver designed by Ian G4COL, and featured in the RSGB Rad Com of November 1990. As this has no pass band filtering to colour the received signal, combined with an

This sounds like a purely subjective form of 'testing' to me. There are too many variables to make a good judgement of one's audio quality. -- The position of the transmit passband with respect to the audio frequencies being transmitted is a large factor (FL1 BFO adjustment). -- The width of the

[Elecraft] Update SSB roundup and/or test

2005-02-25 Thread WA2JJH
My main interest was the SSB audio differences between lets say the first SSB K2's , my self modified 3155, and 4000+ models. I have a 1.07 rev SSB chip. Some early #3000's may have earlier chips. I have not asked for any audio checks from any of the 100+ QSO's. Nobody I worked had a K2.

Hello all, 1. Look for Pierre,VE2LHP to activate Pont Caron Covered Bridge # 61-40-04 from Quebec on 20m SSB. 2. Also look for Dave,W1DEC to activate Warren Covered Bridge # 45-12-15 from Vermont on 75m, 40m & 20m SSB. Look for them near the ARCBS suggested frequencies. http://www.arcbs.org

Dwight, Since both crystals are not oscillating, I would wenture a guess that you have an oscillator that refuses to oscillate above 22 MHz or so. Take a good look at the capacitor values in the oscillator circuit (use the schematic to identify which components are associated with the oscilla
