[Elecraft] K2 Problem - I let some smoke out

[Don Wilhelm]

Mike,

I suspect that the 80 meter receive problem has nothing to do with the 
12 volt power trace incident.

Do you have the K160RX option installed?  If so, check the menu to see 
if the RX ANT is ON for 80 meters.  That is a per band setting.
