Vic,
To get the frequency to display correctly, do a Direct Frequency Entry
for the 0000 band and that should straighten things up for you. Hold
both BAND+/- buttons and enter 00000 and all should be well.
As for it not working on TRN2, the K2 does not care which transverter
band is selected - The K2 does the same thing. When the power is set to
the L range, it will receive a 28 MHz signal on the transverter IN
jack. Try connecting a 28 MHz signal source to the IN jack and see if
you have signals. Make certain you did not bump the VFO knob when
exiting the transverter menu - that could place your power setting to
the high range which would switch receive (and transmit) to the BNC jack.
The only difference between TRN1 and TRN2 is the address sent to the
transverter over the AUXBUS signal line.

Hi All,
I have a K2 with K60XV module, and I have an XV50 transverter set up as TRN1
all working fine and K2 is showing correct frequency when using the KV50.
The TRN settings are :
RF 50
IF 28
OFS 0
Power out L1.00
Adr TRN1
Now, I want to add a VLF receive converter (this provides 0-150khz
coverage) as TRN2
I have set this up as:
RF 0
IF 28
OFS 0
Power out L0.01
Adr TRN2
I temporarily have the XV50 disconnected entirely and the VLF converter
connected to the transverter IN phono socket on my K2.
I have two issues:
1 The VLF converter is working on TRN1 although the frequency naturally
shows 50000 to 50150Khz but it does NOT work on TRN2. No received signals
at all.
2 On TRN2 the frequency readout shows a frequency of around 86Mhz -
87Mhz and no signals from the VLF converter.
Can anyone suggest what I'm doing wrong here please. I'm wondering if I need
to connect the VLF converter via the XV50 which to enable the switching to
work correctly somehow.
I'd be most grateful for any suggestions.
Please copy any replies to my e mail address.
