K2 #5944 is up & running. For me, the challenge is to see if I can build one
of these things without making any mistakes. Succeeded with the Norcal
40A, and also with the K1. But with the K2, I met my match. The preamp
wasn't working, and sure enough, after checking the Elecraft e-mail list for
hints, discovered that I had reversed leads 1 & 2 on T6. Cut out the toroid,
cleared the holes, rewound the turns, reinstalled, and problem solved. I tried
the AF1 to see how much difference it makes, compared with the crystal
filters. It is somewhat better, though not dramatically. Nice radio, lots of fun
building and operating.
Regards to all...
