[Elecraft] K2

[L. D. Ingram]

Hi,

I recently build my second K2 sn 06405. Receiver and transmitter are 
working fine and I have enjoyed a number of QSOs on 40, 30 and 20 
meters and the rest of the bands have been checked out with a signal 
generator and transmitting into a dummy load.

However, occasionally when I go to switch bands with the up (+) key 
it will go into the RCL mode instead. After the first time I was very 
careful to just tap the button and not hold it - but it still 
happens. Also, I don't know if this is related or not, but even more 
occasionally, when I hit the down (-) button the band goes to the 
next higher band rather than the lower one. When that happens, the 
band will continue to go higher with each tap of the down button 
until I tap the up button.

I have resoldered the switch pins and checked that the IC's are 
properly seated.

Has anyone else run across this problem - and if so, what was the solution?

Thanks.
