K2 on PSK IMD?

Steve_wGØAT
Getting ready to use my K2 SN6473 on PSK and possibly other data  
modes. Wondering if there's any issues w/IMD on the K2? I seem to  
remember seeing somewhere on the web a mod made to the SSB board? or  
was that just early SN K2s? Or if I just watch my gain/power levels to  
avoid any ALC should I be OK?

Tks, Steve wGOAT

Re: K2 on PSK IMD?

  Steve,

That is old information that you were seeing.  Those changes have been
incorporated on your KSB2 - of course, if you purchased an older KSB2
board from another owner, you should check it physically against the
values changed by that IMD mod.   The mod instructions are on the
Elecraft website.

Increase the audio level into the K2 until you see 1 ALC bar, and then
back the audio off a bit until it disappears or just barely flickers.
