Hello!
I can't adjust right voltage (6 Volts) on R30 by L30. On 4000kHz and 7300kHz DC=7.95V and L30 no turn more. On another friquencies DC on R30 is right: 1.5V<DC<7.5V All capasitors and diodes was soldered by it nominal. T5 transformer are Ok. It have 16red turns and 4green turns. I don't know what to do... PLEASE HELP ME. IN MY COUNTRY HASN'T MORE K2-OWNERS. -- 72 & 73! de UR5LAM Alexander Ponomarenko RU-QRP-CLUB #103 mailto: [hidden email] _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [hidden email] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Alexander,
The most likely problem is a solder short on the thermistor board in the RP3 position on the RF Board. A quick indicator is to measure the voltage at RF Board U6 pin 5 - if it is not veery close to 4 volts, then surely there is a problem on the thermistor board. Several other things that may be incorrect - wrong core used for T5 - the color should be yellow, inadequate stripping and tinning of the T5 toroid leads, T5 secondary winding in the wrong direction, incorrect capacitors in the VFO Range Selection part of the VFO, varactors incorrectly placed or incorrect type varactors. This is only a partial list of possibilities, but are the most common causes of failure. 73, Don W3FPR > -----Original Message----- > > I can't adjust right voltage (6 Volts) on R30 by L30. > On 4000kHz and 7300kHz DC=7.95V and L30 no turn more. > On another friquencies DC on R30 is right: 1.5V<DC<7.5V > All capasitors and diodes was soldered by it nominal. > T5 transformer are Ok.

Hello Alexander,
I had the same problem 2 days ago. I found out it was because T5 was not wounded onto 85 % of the core. After playing a little bit with the core I got down to 5.5 V from 6.3V I was and I was able to adjust to exactly 6V.
