OK, so I lost the finals on my K2 (no output, 90ohms both collectors to
ground, even with the heatsink removed). Ordered the K2PAKIT, came with the two finals, the 2 2N2222As for the bias circuit, and an unidentified resistor or choke that I don't know what to do with. No instructions... Any help appreciated... 73, Ross N4RP K2 #0219. -- FCC Section 97.313(a) “At all times, an amateur station must use the minimum transmitter power necessary to carry out the desired communications.” ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |
Ross,
You have a replacement resistor for R50 included in the K2PAKIT - sometimes it is open, so it would be wise to check - measure the resistanc between the emitter of Q6 and ground - if it is other than 1.5 ohms, replace R50. 73, Don W3FPR Ross Primrose wrote: > OK, so I lost the finals on my K2 (no output, 90ohms both collectors to > ground, even with the heatsink removed).

Thanks Don and everyone else who replied. I'd already figured out it
must be a replacement R50 from looking at the schematics. It's a higher power unit than the one already in there, so I replaced it w/o even checking if the one in there was good. 73, Ross N4RP On 2/11/10 9:15 PM, Don Wilhelm wrote: > Ross, > > You have a replacement resistor for R50 included in the K2PAKIT - > sometimes it is open, so it would be wise to check - measure the > resistanc between the emitter of Q6 and ground - if it is other than > 1.5 ohms, replace R50. > > 73, > Don W3FPR > > Ross Primrose wrote: >> OK, so I lost the finals on my K2 (no output, 90ohms both collectors >> to ground, even with the heatsink removed).
