[Elecraft] [K2] VCO Voltage Instability

[Don Wilhelm]

Dave,

On the bottom of the RF Board, check the small RF Choke RFC15 for 
continuity - check with the ohmmeter, voltage checks at both ends will 
be 5 volts even if it is open.  If it is open, you can use a temporary 
jumper across it, but get the proper choke and install it when available.

73,
