[Elecraft] Two K2's for split operation

[Charles Greene]

Karsten,

I am using two K2's for SO2R, single operator two radios, using separate 
antennas, on 20 and 40 RTTY.  I need a filter on 40, but none on 20.  The 
K2 on 40 runs 10-15 watts, and on 20, 100 watts.  On CW, the second 
harmonic is too close to the fundamental, and my antennas are too close to 
each other even for K2s with filters on both.  I'll have to try separating 
the antennas 60 -100' and/or operating 7100 up.

BTW, try N1MM Logger for a great contesting program, that runs SO2R and 
also logs for contesting.  Search on N1MM.
