[Elecraft] K2 new build teething problem

[Peter Lock]

Hi

 

I have just completed the basic build on my K2 and have had a CW qso, all
works well, apart from a noise in the headphones or on the speaker when I
let go of the keyer paddle, dits or dahs, it is all the same.  It sounds a
little like a ricochet, or perhaps a midget in there hitting a dustbin lid
after the character has been sent.  It happens on all bands.  My qso partner
did not report any key clicks.

 

Any ideas? - apart from taking the dustbin lid away from the midget, of
course.

 

Peter
