Default Re: KW2000 Transceiver

The stability of my KW2000a improved greatly after I changed the out of tolerance resistors and caps within the VFO compartment. Not easy to get to. I did the filament mod and don't think I need to add a Huff & Puff. It does drift a bit for the first half hour but settles down. In qsos with anyone using a modern rig they will probably notice some drift.
I remember reading that the 6U8 was an improvement on the ECF82. Although listed as equivalent they are not necessarily identical. Perhaps someone can clarify this. I can't say that i noticed any difference myself though.
