K2 KIO2 more current from pin 8

Pedro Correia

Hi,

I would like increase the available current from KIO2 pin 8 from 50 mA to about 300 mA. I want to power a NUE-PSK modem and a NESCAF filter with a CW tune indicator. I did notice that the current limit is due to L1 on the AUX2 Board. Can I replace L1 with  6 turns off wire on a FT37-43 inductor? Will it be safe to draw 300 mA this way from a K2?
Thank you in advance.
