Hi there, just a quick note.
suppled in the KSB2 kit were two PN2222A and a 2N3906.
Stupidly, I assumed that the 2N3906 was equivilent to the 2222's and fitted
it as Q1. Oddly enough it did'nt work ! as, while the two devices have similar
pinouts, one is NPN and the other is PNP. I don't know if this is just a one
off slip-up, but its better to publish and warn other builders of the possibility
for error here.
My KSB2 now appears to be working ok after fitting a BC184.
Now for the Mic Header. Did I see a mod for this somewhere for using
different Mics with the ability to change over quickly?
5 hours of headscratching, and a missed oportunity for a meeting on sked
with my new K2 ;-( such is life, and where I'm concerned.. read my SIG ;-)
