I just got around to adding the KNB2 mod prompted by Joe Planisky
KB8AP and originally designed by Stefan Steger DL7MAJ. WOW is all
I can say and a BIG THANK YOU Stefan. I must have missed this
one. I read a lot in the K2 posts where many people like Joe and the
rest of us have put up with KNB2's that don't do a thing. WELL THATS
OVER. Try this mod and your K2 life will be changed forever. I can say
now that I've done it, the K2 NB works almost as good as my Mark V
does and thats a lot. The mod adds a 0.1 uF capacitor between the
emitter of Q2 and ground. I chose to "tack solder" the "104", from K2
terminology, from Q2 emitter to a ground post on the plug just above
it. Works great. I just wanted to re-post this because I know a lot
of you K2 users are not going to get the most from your K2s NB unless
you do this mod. Then again, maybe all of you already have. :-)
