[Elecraft] k2 no transmit power

Tue Feb 3 12:12:00 2004

David -     If you are testing at the .1 watt level only, try higher power,
say 1 watt.  My K2  wont "start" transmitting at the minimun setting of the
power level  control when I first turn the power on.  I need to start
sending at a higher power level and then turn the power down.  I don't know
why, or if it is a fault with my rig or a "design feature".    73 -   Rick

Subject: [Elecraft] k2 no transmit power

my k2 seems to be dead on transmit but the receive is okay how can I
determine if it is the finals or some thing else? I have hooked my k2 up to
a watt meter with a dummy load and when I key down the watt meter does not
move at .1 watts power level. I can hear a carrier on my ts2000 on the same
frequency as the k2 when I key down with the same watt meter and dummy load
hooked up
on transmit q7 and q8 base voltage is .640 the collector voltage is 13.13
but there is no voltage on the emitter. so what else can I check before I
order new parts to fix my k2?
I also need to figure out what parts I need to order for the k2.

see ya
