All,
Just completed the 60 meter module in K2 #2715, and it's working fine! I did manage to solder both the 3 and 8 pin headers on the wrong side of the board though. Always had a phobia bout that, and after all those kits, I finally did it! I was able to remove both and reuse them, but I'm thinking that some extra caution note in the assembly instructions might be good.
Also did the firmware upgrade and the sigmoid keying mod just to keep things up to date. 2715 is getting pretty hacked up, but everything is working FB. I'm not sure I want to take it on a long ride down a rough road anymore though.
Anyone have thoughts about the DSP module? I operate mostly PSK31, and occasionally CW. I'm pretty happy with the present AF filter card, so I wonder what the pros and cons of DSP are; any thoughts??
