[Elecraft] K2 Digital Signals Mod

[thom2 at att.net]

Hi Pete,
  I too am using my K2 and a RigBlaster for psk31.  I am only running between and 5 and 10 watts, or so out on 20 meters and haven't been having much luck making contacts.  Previously I had used a Yaesu rig putting about 40 eatts into the same antenna and had no trouble at all making contacts.  

I have almost completed a 35 watt amplifier (HFPacker amp, I think its called) so I can get a bit more ooomph.

I was wondering if you or anyone else is using the K2 barefoot and if so how you were doing with psk31?

Thanks Tom
