[Elecraft] K2/100 & 6 meter - CW is not giving any output

Hi Don, thanks for responding,

Short coax cable between K2 Ant > Txin IF1
Antenna is connected to transverter Ant plug.

Control cable is connected between K2 and transverter

SSB on 6 meter works fine so cables are ok. Keyer is working fine on HF
bands.

Relay is clicking in the transverter when PTT is make by keying my bencher
which is connected to the K2 keyer input jack.

Hope this is more clear now Don.

Rob,

Please clarify - there is no PTT relay in the K2/100, all transmit/receive
switching is electronic, so there is no relay clicking involved.  Is the
relay clicking from the K2/100 or from the transverter?

Do you have power output from the KPA100 without the 6 meter transverter
connected?  Have you configured the 6 meter transverter correctly?  How are
you driving the transverter (from the K60XV output jacks of from the high
power output from the K2/100)?  In other words, give us the complete setup
information so we can help - all these things do make a difference.

73,
Don W3FPR
