According to the Sherwood table, K2 # 1140 demonstrated 70 DB at 2 khz, while serial # 3160 posted 80 DB at 2khz, phase noise limited, actually better.

Exactly what changes to the radio led to this improvement?  I would like to be sure I have done the apprpriate mods to serial # 700 !!!

72 and HNY,

Fred,

The main changes that would have created that difference is the newer speced
crystals and the winding of T7.  If you have added a new set of crystals,
that is good, but check to see if T7 is the newer ration of 20 turns to 5
turns - it matches the filter output impedance better than the older turns
ratio.

73,
Don W3FPR

Apparently, seven (7)  K2/100's along with two additional K2's for backup
are in use at the Kadmat site (one of the 4 Dxpedition sites) for the
Lakshadweep Island operation that has just started.  The first cluster
reports noted were for 30 meter cw operation and Joe, AA4NN was reported to
be the operator.  Operations are now being reported on several bands.  Check
http://www.vu7.in/  for complete information and click the various sites for
equipment line up.  Good hunting!  73 es gud dxing.  -- Don N4HH
