Kanga LCK transceiver kit

 

Hi all,

A friend of mine just gave me a Kanga L.C.K. CW transceiver kit. Unfortunately the box does not contain any instructions.
I searched the internet and found nothing on this kit.
I would be very happy If someone could send me a copy of the manual, or at least of the schematic diagram.

Thank you very much in advance,

Claude, HB9CGL
 

Well some very obscure early qrp kits on this side of the Atlantic also.

Try a list with a lot of UK participation, maybe the one for qrp labs.

ID the semiconductors to see what is there for starts. Ditto for inductors.

I would try contacting Kanga Products:

 

Hello Curt,
Thank you for the answer.I found the description of the LCK transceiver in SPRAT Nr 60, thanks to the help of some members of the GQRP club.
All the best, 73's

The LCK was a G-QRP project published in Sprat, their newsletter. I found
it listed on an archived page of the Kanga-USA site, but no instructions or
anything. I would contact the G-QRP folks and ask if anyone has
documentation. Let us know how it goes. Looks like an interesting project.
The owner of Kanga-USA has shut down for health reasons but you might also
try there.

This makes it difficult for us to experiment with radio kits.

Hello to all,

I'm impressed by the amount of interest to my question. I have got now all the information for building the kit.Many thanks to Mark, Paul, Neil, Oliveira and especially to Michael who sent me the copy of the manual.
This is real ham spirit!
Have a nice day,
73's

I had a similar experience when I acquired a still unopened Howes VFO kit. I knew the model number, and that it was from England, but not much else.

I sent a request to the G-QRP people and the group was able to find and e-mail me the assembly instructions for it. The kit turns out to be from about 35 years ago, and on assembly it (still) works quite well. Another demonstration of how well amateurs work together to promote the hobby.

I am now a G-QRP member - thanks!
