[Elecraft] K2 and DSP

[Stephen W. Kercel]

John:

I have a DSP module in my K2 and I think that it is wonderful. K2/DSP 
is discussed occasionally on the list.

There are two notable points of discussion.

1) Some users (including me) report a loud pop on CW keying with the 
DSP installed. This is easily remedied by tweaking the T-R delay settings.

2) With DSP denoising activated, the radio sometimes becomes so quiet 
that you think it is broken, and you need to turn off the denoising 
to see if the radio is still working. With the denoising on, as you 
tune across signals they seem to pop out of the surrounding nothingness.

If you do no see many postings about K2/DSP, I suspect that the 
reason is that so little goes wrong with it.

73,
