Think that's at least 5 or 6 of us on the reflector have had this issue,
and this easy fix, so far. Does it deserve a builder alert on the
website yet?
For anyone else: If you are seeing AGC problems (hold PRE/ATT and AGC,
see if your K2 goes deaf), check your junk box for a 10pF cap and change
control board C8. Wayne says 680 pF at C7 may be another option. I DO
NOT recommend this mod UNLESS you're seeing "AGC OFF" issues though.
