Last week I asked on this reflector about realigning my K2 as it is about 10 months old and I wasn't really sure I did a good job of it the first time. Several good people here on the reflector adviced it probably was a good idea and offered some valuable suggestions for this time around.
Over the last two days I've spent about 10 hours doing what I think is a good alignment and think that it is now complete. (Surprized how close most setting were.)I've not done any serious on air testing with it other than some casual listening because I have two concerns. Both relate to the IF passband as seen on Spectrogram. First, the CW level when using OP1 filter is about 20+ db higher than on LSB/USB. If this is a problem, any ideas as to how to correct it? Second, the displayed bandwidth is 400-500 hz wider than that set in the K2 and especially on OP1 which was about 3khz+ wide. They resemble their settings except all are simply wider than that set. I'm allowing for half power points and all that. I had to increase the Spectrogram sample rate to see all the bandwidth especially on OP1. Again my thanks to all for the good help I received and to Elecraft for the bandwidth here. Jim, AB0UK K2/100 S/N 4787 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
