[Elecraft] Made my first contacts on my K2

[Matthew Denson]

Hi All,

Building the K2 was a lot of fun, and now my basic K2 (#6210) is on the air.  I've made contacts with OR and MI from my location here in CA.  Been able to answer CQs on the first try both times.  Really lovely.

I do have one thing that is nagging at me.  The audio level seems low.  When I first turn on the rig the level seems right.  I have to turn the AF Gain down to be comfortable.  But after a few minutes (8-10) the audio level drops all at once.  It is still usable but it can't be right.

I am going to build the crystal oscillator to do some signal tracing, but wanted to ask if there was a particular place I should look?  I have very little experience with this so use small words. hi hi!
