[Elecraft] K2 DSP

[Guy Olinger K2AV]

Seems to be something like 60-80 ma extra running DSP on vs DSP
bypassed on battery.

With DSP you should be able to toggle between three modes by tapping
display: normal, DSP and voltage/current.  In the DSP mode,  probably
showing C something  nr, do a series of holds on BAND+ until you find
dSP on.  Tap BAND- and you should see dSP byP,  This knocks down my
battery drain, but does not seem to make as much a difference if I'm
running on power supply.  Go figure.

73, Guy.
