[Elecraft] k2 audio power output

Mon Feb 9 07:17:00 2004

Besides the other comments written.....a lot of complaints in the past =
about
audio power and listening levels have been due to AGC pot not being set
correct.  Re-read the part in the alignment about setting the AGC.  A =
sure
test is to turn off the AGC and if the volume comes roaring up, you know =
you
have it set wrong.

Subject: [Elecraft] k2 audio power output

All,

I just finished my cw k2 and have not yet added any options.  during the =
40m
rx test i heard some nice stuff with a dipole stretched out on my floor.

i normally operate vhf -> microwaves, so i don't have hf antennas yet.

now that my k2 is working and making power on tx, i am listening with no
antenna.  i need to crank the volume 3/4 of the way to hear good =
background
noise power.

is this normal?  will signals blow through the rig?  ( iwas impressed =
with
the filters on the 40m test)

tnx,
Ed wa3drc
