I had my K2 off to replace a defective headphone jack and
when I powered it back on, I decided to track how far off
freq the rig was and how long it would take to warm up to
spec. I used Spectran and measured WWV's carrier in USB
mode on 9999.400. Here are the results:
Time on Room Temp Off freq amount (hz)
1 minute 75.4 f +60
30 mins 76.3 f +13
60 mins 77.2 f + 7
100 mins 78.3 f + 2
I did not transmit during this time so there is no heat other
than by the operation and rx components.
