[Elecraft] 160M Dead on my K2

[Mark Adams]

Hi Gang,

I couldn't wait to attack the 160 test with my K2. I switched to top 
band at the appointed time and heard..... nothing! So here's the deal.


My K2 is QRP, SN543 with all modules less the DSP. The 160 did work 
when I last used it 3 years ago. The RX antenna likewise does nothing. 
I pulled the board to look for problems and it looks FB. I tried 
transmitting to a dummy load and the display reads LoP. Everything else 
in the radio functions to spec. The 80/160 BP filters are tuned up 
nicely for 80M. When I change bands from 80 - 160, I don't feel or hear 
any operation from relay K1 on the 160 module. Ideas??

Mark K2QO/R and QRP
