[Elecraft] Firmware 2.04P / 1.09 vs. KPA100/KAT100 in EC2 problem + XV50 troubles

Sun Mar 21 17:51:00 2004

RX ANT isn�t the problem (first to be checked here).

Meanwhile all works but sometimes it fails again.
But I can�t reproduce the failure to say exactly when it happens.
Probably firmware conflict with the KAT100 version 1.04 ?

On my second K2 (to be used with a VX50) I changed the firmwares too
(but still without the cw key mods).
Reproduced (as recommended) the TRN SEC settings and now have no 50 Mc
frequency display anymore.
I wonder if I now have to make changes to the Band Select DIP switches in
the XV50 too ?
(But this hasn�t been mentioned in the instructions ...)

I love "brandnew" firmware updates ...
