[Elecraft] K2 and IC-7800

[drcuthbert@micron.com]

Anyone have BDR specs on the Icom IC-7800? It uses up conversion- a 60 =
MHz IF and then down to 36 kHz. The roofing filter is 6 kHz. It has the =
all-band up conversion architecture.

Still working on my K2. A couple of parts were missing and I stopped at =
that step. Since I didn't have it for the Stew Perry, and had already =
sold the TS-570, I used the spared rig- an FT-747GX. This wasn't much =
fun. I will have the K2 ready for the CQ 160M CW 'test, tho.

My KX1 did something strange. Although the output power is normal and =
the ATU works, it only displays 1/2 watt. No doubt I inadvertently =
tweaked some setting.
