Posted by: Eric WA6HHQ Posted On: 05/16/00 Subject: New Product: Elecraft K1 Two-Band HF Transceiver Message Posted: Hi, We're pleased to introduce the Elecraft K1 Two-Band HF Transceiver. Photos and complete details can be found at: http://www.elecraft.com We will also be showing the K1 at our Dayton Booth #196 later this week. The K1 is a two-band, 5-watt CW transceiver kit. It's ideal for first-time builders, with our modular, "wireless" construction, all through-hole parts, and comprehensive assembly manual. But its small size (2.2"H x 5.2"W x 5.7"D), low current drain (under 50 mA), and wide range of features will appeal to those looking for a miniature, high-performance travel radio. Standard features include: - large, easy-to-read LCD Options include: noise blanker, additional 2-band filter boards, and our unique Ground-Mount Bracket for trail use (see below). The K1 can be built for your choice of two HF bands, a big advantage over monoband rigs for either QRP or portable use. The standard configuration is 40 and 20 meters (*). Combined, these two popular bands offer day or night operation, and reliable world-wide communications at home or on the road. They're also the "big two" on Field Day and for QRP contests. The lightweight KBR1 ground-mount bracket converts the K1 into a "trail-friendly" radio, allowing stable operation on rough surfaces while positioning the front panel at the optimal viewing angle. It can also be used for desktop or mobile mounting, and packs neatly into a The K1 is styled to match our all-band SSB/CW transceiver, the K2, and features the same rugged, attractive, textured-finish cabinet. We hope you'll find the K1 an exciting addition to our product line! Please refer to our web pages for pricing and availability ( http://www.elecraft.com ), or call 831-662-8345, or send e-mail to sales@elecraft.com. (*) Other bands to be announced. 73, Eric (WA6HHQ) and Wayne (N6KR)  |
