Power Output Regulation Issue

Fred (FL)

All the rave reviews, great reports, and
extraordinary K2 reviews - always deal with the
K2's receiver.  Never much at all about the
transmitter capability.  From your readings, and
QRP power levels - one would think it would
be controlled better than your power meter/dummy
load have shown?  If one hangs a amplifier onto
K2 - I wonder what the amp's output range would be?

Fred, FL

It's irrelevant what the output of an amp is because it's a function of
gain.
Meaning if you want 100W output and you have a rig capable of producing
10W output then you need at least
a 10 to 1 ratio.  The bread and butter of any transceiver is its
receiver.  If you can't hear em, you can't work em.
Of course a properly designed transmitter is very important to ensure
purity of signal.  Elecraft has designed an
excellent product that works better than most commercial amateur radio
gear out there.  Personally I keep going back to
Elecraft because of the price features support and design.  That's why I
own all their transceiver products.

The best reviews comes from the owners themselves and is evident not
only on this group, but several others throughout
the Internet.
