KIO2 Not Working

Elecraft mailing list
Hello All,

I have a K2 with the KIO2 installed which has stopped working after I hooked it up to an Electaft 144mhz transverter, the transverter is working as I have used it with a K3. I have bought a new KIO3 kit, built and tested it as per the instructions however there is still no voltages at all. I suspect the K2, how would I prove / disprove this.

Thanks.


Best regards,
Richard Hubbard

Richard,

What kind of cable did you use to connect the K2's KIO2 RS-232 port to the
transverter?  As Don, W3FPR has reminded us numerous times, one cannot use a
conventional RS-232 (straight thru serial) cable with the KIO2, but one must
instead make up the special cable described in the KIO2 manual.

Mike, K8CN
