SILLY QUESTION

[Ed Worst]

Does anyone have a K2 they would like to find a good home for?  Or maybe
it's not working quite right, and you don't have the time to troubleshoot?
Or maybe it's partially built, and chances are it'll never see 12v?

I'm interested in a pretty simple K2: with the KSB2 SSB adapter, and the
KAF2 Audio Filter.

Please contact me off-list.

Tnx es 73,
ed - k9ew

I do not have a radio that needs a good home. However, if you're looking
for a very friendly mixed northern-breed dog, I might have just the thing
for you.

The Elecraft  Web site indicates its a simple operation to switch from the 2
band to 4 band boards, to give you all 6 bands.

How many people really do this ?

I just bought a used K1 and it has a 4 band installed and a extra 2 band
board, it sure doesn't look that easy, mine has the antenna tuner too.

This is something you probably already knew.

The manual for the K2ATOBKT conversion kit which can be found at:

http://www.elecraft.com/manual/k2a2binstr.pdf


has a couple of pretty neat charts on pages 2 and 3.  The purpose of these
charts is to manually record all of your firmware settings so that you can
easily re-enter them if need be after making the A to B mods.

I printed these charts out and filled them in so I'll have them handy to
refer to in the event something goes whacky and I lose the settings.  I
found these particularly helpful with the BFO CAL FIL settings.

But you probably already knew that.

Bob, I've got a K1 with a 4 band board (40, 30, 20 and 15 meters) and a
2 band board with a slight mod to put it on 160 meters as well as 80 m.
  It really doesn't take all that long to change the two boards (and I
have the antenna tuner as well) and it's pretty obvious which one should
be in given the time of day.  With practice, it's pretty easy to do --
give it some tries!
