Hi,
After using my K2/100 for nearly a year I finally got
it hooked up to my Ameritron AL-811 amplifier.
Previously, I had used the amp only with my IC-746Pro.
I build a switch box to switch the amp keying. It
also switches out the amplifier ALC (not that the
K2/100 uses it) and it switches the MFJ-216 Amplifier
Saver as well. BTW, I had to move the K2/100 about
15 inches from the amplifier to get rid of audio
distortion. That has been discussed before here so it
is nothing new.
The K2/100 and the amp worked together just fine.
With the K2/100 power out at about 55 watts the amp
output was about 500 watts. I'm sure with 65 watts
the amp would have easily put out it's full 600 watts.
The extra power sure caused a stir in the ether.
Toward the end of an hour I actually had a pileup
going. Imagine having a pileup in Colorado. Just
more incentive for the Elecraft amplifiers.
The K2/100 just keeps amazing me as to it's
capabilities. (I'm still trying to figure out all the
ins and outs of the DSP....most of the time I don't
think I really need it. But, hey buy it
anyway....Wayne and Eric can always use the business.)
Have a great day everyone.
