[Elecraft] k2 accessories questions

Tue Nov 12 10:08:01 2002

Hi, Gary.  The KNB2 works great at this location, but it all depends on
whether or not you have any noise (such as ignition noise or, like me, an
electric fence) to contend with.  I'd say don't get it right away, but add
it down the road a bit. On the other hand, I find the KAF2 indispensable --
it really peaks up the signal and makes the apparent s/n much better.  Of
course, the regular crystal filter and solid and adjustable, they may be
more than enough for you.  But it's nice to have such "problems" -- which
you can always solve later!

73,

Joe, W2RBA
