t even know Elecraft used 259s on some of their products (only
having a barefoot K2 and a K1) and it kinda surprises me. They use BNCs
on the rigs...why not continue that to the PA? Even a BNC is adequate
for the power levels involved and anyone with a K2 must be happy with
working with BNCs already.
on at work and it
galls me to have to use PL259s at home, so as far as I can I avoid.
The pressure clamp variety is the only style of 259 I'll work with, and
if I can't get hold of one then I use a 295 to N or BNC adaptor and a
properly terminated cable. Any (tiny) loss in t

I'd say it was pretty mandatory to build a K2. Nice as the K3 is (and
it _is_ nice!!) I don't think you can beat the sheer pleasure of
building and using a K2.

ngs were "interesting" too!
I've just recalibrated my K2 filters to give me a widest CW filter at
1.5KHz so I can re-create the "wide open - hear everything" feel!
It's HF CW field day in Europe and sitting on 20m (albeit not in great
shape propagation wise) with
ms are indeed easy to set up (I run a small one myself
http://www.gm3zet.org/phpBB2/index.php) but I've never enjoyed using any
of them for quick & easy navigation/reading/replying/filtering/ignoring
threads/following threads
YMMV...

I never sign /QRP but accasionally I'll add "QRP" into a CQ call if I'm
on one of the QRP calling frequencies and want to inform other QRPers
that I'll be able to hear them, if they can hear me.

That's what C connectors are for...
