[Elecraft] K2DSP and KAF2

[Dave]

Hi fellow Elecrafters

One area where my K1 exceeds the performance of the K2, especially now that
I've fitted the battery draining KDSP2, is the much lower supply current. I
can operate for around 3 days of "holiday" operating when using an outboard
pack of 10 x 1800 mAh NiMh cells on my K1. While the K1 may seem to have
been neglected in the "add on" features, it does have a big advantage of low
current.

BTW, the KDSP2 is now in regular use here - I'm starting to wonder how I
managed without it. There have been 555 visits to my images of the DSP
filter response in the past 2 days.
