Does the K2 have a built in SWR meter ?

Ffive VHN
Hello,

A simple question for you,

Does the K2 have a built in SWR meter ?

I am going to build an ATU and I want to know if I'll
need to include an SWR meter. If the K2 already has
one , I will not need to.

Please reply directly to me , thanks.

Hi again,

Thats interesting......

Some say 'yes' and some say 'no'.

It looks like the K2 (original qrp) version does not ,
but the K2/100 does.

Do you agree ?

thanks

The basic K2 does not have a bridge on the output...the KPA100 amplifier and
the KAT100 tuner both have bridges.  The 100 has a SWR display from the
bridge, the KPA100 is used basically as a power meter circuit.

Peter Zenker
The Basic K2 get´s an SWR Meter as soon as the KAT2 QRP Tuner is built in.
You don´t need any 100W Version
