freq counter probe ?

[John Cooper]

Does the frequency counter probe have to be made with the RG 174 or will regular stranded wire work.  As far as I can tell the ground just goes to the shielding.  As long as I don’t leave it in the radio during normal use I should be alright I think.

John,

Use the coax, it is a faraday shield (ground only at one end).
Yes, even with coax, it should not be left plugged in - especially with
the KPA100 installed.  The other transmit circuits may pick up BFO
harmonics from the wire and you can transmit spurs.  It is not so much
of a problem with the K2/10, but with the KPA100, remove it.
