Hi Chris.
I find the DSP to be a must have item.
On ssb the correct setting would quiet the rx to such exstent that you dont
need the squelch to monitor a frequency.
Same apply to cw and in same time you have the abillity to narrow down
bandwith.
One area where I find most useful is in digital modes.
We know the xtal filters in the K2 can shift by couple of 10hz making psk31
a little difficult to do if you not doing it the right way ,
so I use for psk and rtty my K2 set for OP1 in rx which is the same filter
for tx.
I then narrow the bandwith with the dsp.
Just set up the dsp with the center frequency of your choice and program 4
bw where I suggest af1 to be full bw.
Workes like a charm.
The K2 is actually a very good psk31 radio.

Reseting a K2

DW Holtman
Hello,

A few weeks ago, someone posted a procedure for reseting a K2. It was a
sequence something like holding the 4,5 and 6 buttons while powering up.

What is the sequence? Does it reset everything, filters, sidetone etc to
it's factory settings? I could not find it in the manual or in the archives.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Best,
DW Holtman

Re: Reseting a K2

You've got it--

1. Turn the K2 off.
2. Hold down the 4, 5, and 6 keys
3. Turn the K2 back on.

The EEPROM will be re-written with the factory defaults for all  
settings, which will require that you re-run all of the calibration  
functions again.

BTW, it's on Page 106 of the manual.
