RRC 1258MkII... or MkIIs??
« on: 2015-03-16, 07:58:41 »
Hi all...

I recently purchased a MkIIs from HRO and will soon obtain a K3/0. The cables have arrived directly from Elecraft as well. But to stay on point, I want to be able to take advantage of the sub RX so I was very careful to make certain to get the MkIIs. The staff at HRO insists this is a MkIIs and the sticker on the bottom of the unit says MkIIs as well. But the stenciling on the front of the unit says only MkII -no 'S'.

I just want to be sure I've indeed received the right box. Is there a way to know for certain now rather than discovering a month later that this is really only a MkII?

tnx es 73

Ian, K5ZM

It's OK if the sticker below says MkIIs, the front has always had the text 1258MkII. And we change the hardware to dual RX already 2010 so it's only on the used marked you have to take an extra look to be sure which version it is.

Tnx, Mike! I was hoping -and sort of expecting- it was something like that. Tnx for the link, too. Guess I didn't look around too much before posting ;)
