[Elecraft] K2/100 first time alignment & Instalation question.

[Don Wilhelm]

Jerry,

If you want to have some 'fun', monitor the voltage at J3 red lead while
varying the amount of light shining on the output transistors - you will see
some phoo-voltaic effects.  So I conclude that your 0.091 volts is likely
OK.

73,

I just powered up the K2/100 for the first time with the low-currnet
power supply and did the initial voltage checks on page 43.
 D13 cathode was  143 v
U4 pin 8   was -25.54v
TP1  was 0v
J3   red lead was  .091v

The manual says that J3 should be zero,  Is this ok or am I too picky?

The current drain was  450 ma going down to 360 when I heard the fan go off.

K2 serial 4472
