I bought both a 4-band and 2-band filter board for my K1. I built the 4-band
board for 40, 30, 20, and 15 meters.
I have parts to make the 2-band board either 80/17 or 80/15. I've also
considered the 160/80 option. That's not what's bothering me. Here's the
question:
What's really going to be involved when swapping boards? Beyond the physical
removal of one board and installation of the other, there are menu changes
to make to identify what bands are installed. What about calibration? In the
documentation for the 2-band board it indicates the K1 can remember settings
for 4 bands so it's not necessary to re-calibrate every time you swap
boards. They must be thinking I'm swapping two 2-band boards because 4+2 is
six bands to remember.
Anybody else using this configuration and can tell me what all I'll have to
do every time I switch boards?
My other alternative is just to forget the 2-band board and move on to
building K2 #4941 which is sitting in its box ready to be built. I just feel
like I should finish all the K1 options before moving on to the K2 otherwise
the K1 will never get done.
