Hi Everyone,
I thought it a good idea to update the list about my K2's locked VFOs, which
I posted last week.
Briefly, the A & B VFOs were both locked up, each at one frequency on 20m,
and ONLY on 20m. All other bands were completely normal. Neither VFO A nor
B would budge from their last displayed 20m frequencies, and neither would
even accept a frequency write (BAND- and BAND+ held together) without
quickly reverting to the same two STUCK frequencies.
The fix suggested by Scott at Elecraft was to do a system reset (any three
number keys held down while powering up the K2). That saved the day. I had
just completed doing the A-to-B upgrades, as well as several other mods, and
had to reset the filters and other parameters anyway so nothing was lost.
Scott thought that the problem was likely an EPROM error, which refused to
clear without some drastic action. The reset action saved the day.
73 to all,
Steve Banks
