[Elecraft] K2 problem RX

[Christophe F8ACF-56]

Hello Don,

OK thank you for the explanation, I can devote myself to the construction of "KAF2" I'll let you know of my evolution, it is always reassuring to have accurate graduations

Thanks again for your help

K2 # 7369

Christophe,

What you observe is normal if your sidetone pitch setting is 700 Hz.

When using CW mode, the K2 transmit frequency will be offset from the 
receive frequency by the amount of the sidetone pitch setting you have 
in the menu.  If you are in CW normal, transmit will be lower, in CW 
reverse, it will be higher.

There is no offset for SSB or RTTY modes - the transmitted carrier 
(suppressed) frequency will be the same as the receive carrier frequency.

If you need assistance calibrating the K2 dial frequency, read the K2 
Dial Calibration article on my website www.w3fpr.com.

73,
Don W3FPR
