By the way we are speaking of K2 #2481 here.
OK next question,
the xtals that came out were marked 4.91
the ones I put in were marked 4.9136 and the package was marked with 3.7
I bought this rig used and already assembled, it works so well I haven't messed
with any adjustments, other than to tweak the CAL FIL settings a bit.
After this xtal mod, what part of the alignment should I go through?
Any pointers to the page(s) in the mighty fine manual would be appreciated.
Also, I have the following 'alignment' pages bookmarked:
http://www.elecraft.com/Apps/new_fil_docs/filter_apps.htm
http://www.elecraft.com/Apps/new_fil_docs/N0SS_Filter_Adjustment.html
http://www.n0ss.net/k2_filters_using_gram_v5r17.pdf
http://www.elecraft.com/Apps/new_fil_docs/k2_cw_gram.pdf
http://www.elecraft.com/Apps/new_fil_docs/k2_ssb_gram.pdf
http://www.qsl.net/w3fpr/download_files/K2_align_manual_rev_E.pdf
http://w3fpr.qrpradio.com/n6kr_method.htm
http://w3fpr.qrpradio.com/dial_cal.html
so I have lots of info at my disposal,
in fact, I would say almost to much, if that's possible.
Which one of those references do I use
and in what order should I use them?
P.S.
SSB boards new xtal mod been completed.
I will have the new main board xtal mod installed
by the time I begin to receive answer(s) to my alignment question.
NOTE, that's just the K2KSB2XTLS xtal mod,
we are not talking about any of the possible mods from
http://home.pacbell.net/johngreb/KI6WX.html pages.
They have not been done, yet, and may not be done at all,
but perhaps that's a subject for another post.....
