Hello all!
I am proud to say that K2 sn 6688 is alive and well in Hutchinson, KS, USA
I finished up all of the preliminary testing and alignment, then built
the option boards (DSP, SSB, NB, 60mtr, 160mtr).
A few minutes ago I did some over-the-air checks on 40mtrs with a friend
across town. All sounded good to him, so needless to say I am pleased.
There was one glitch though, we shifted up to 28.400, and my audio level
dropped way off. I had to practically yell in the mike for my friend to
hear me. Is this a common thing that 10mtrs needs more punch or do I
have a problem? Any ideas on what I might be able to do? I saw something
in the manual about changing r15 on the SSB board, but I think that only
applies to SSBA level 1, I was set at SSBA level 3, SSBC 1-1.
When I received the "box 'o parts" I was a bit intimidated. After
perusing the manual I was put very much at ease and pressed on. The
manual was so well written I think that anyone with an appropriate
soldering iron could put it together.
The biggest thrill I have is when I tackle a project, be it for work
where I do building automation programming, or building a kit like this,
is when you are finished and it all works as you expect.
What a wonderful project this has been!
