[Elecraft] Troubleshooting a weak K2 receiver

[David Doar]

Happy days!
The replacement choke came today, and I promptly installed it.  I'm now getting 7.85 volts at the D2 and D3 anodes, and much stronger signals across all bands. Picked up several S-9 signals, and even a couple that that were S-9 +10.
I also completed the installation of the KAT2 antenna tuner, and it seems to be working as advertised.  I even managed a quickie QSO with W1AW/1 in Maine (about 1700 miles) with 10 watts and my attic dipole. 
Now it's time to start in on the KAF2, KNB2, and KB2. 
I'm have a ton of fun building this little radio!
