[Elecraft] Re: K2 KAT2 Lo P

[Clark Macaulay]

David, thanks for your help.  
   
  In addition to a potential problem with K17 (which I haven't yet checked out), I pulled the KAT2 and connected the dummy load into the original antenna jack.  Could not get more than .2 watts no matter what I tried.  Great.  So, this afternoon I studied the section in the manual on tracing transmitter signals, got my tools and cables set up, turned on the K2, and ---viola!-- I now have power.  I guess the little fella was just testing me to see if I was serious.  Do they have a mind of their own?  I suppose an active component somewhere is flakey but I can't begin to look for it until the rig stays 'broken'.  
   
  I'll check out the K17 tomorrow.  Thanks again,
