Steve,

If your 'scope will indicate down to 20 mv (I assume that is peak to peak), 
you should be quite able to use the oscillator shown in the K2 manual - the 
lowest expected voltage indicated in the manual is 0.27 Vrms at the 2nd 
Crystal Filter Output and that is 756 millivolts peak to peak.  In fact, 
with a 'scope that sensitive, you could use a signal source of only 
one-tenth the 140 mVrms value stated and achieve similar results.

73,

Any suggestions or recommendations for a Sig Generator used for applications 
such as tracing as described in Appendix E of manual or at elecraft's site. 
I am aware of the simple oscillator with 10MHZ crystal that is described 
after the Sig tracing section of appendix.   I have found that the signal 
generated for my scope 199C by fluke needs to be in the order of 
20millivolts for the 10 to 1 probes.  Any suggestions or "redirection" is 
appreciated..hi..hi..
