Which core are we talking about? The manual says to "squeeze" the windings of L2 if the 40m power is lower than 20m. I tried that and it did seem to raise the 40m power, though still not as high as 20. I think some of the extra power on 20m is due to the spurious sidebands that I observe. I really would like to understand what is causing that phenomenon because it tells me something just isn't right and because I don't feel comfortable operating with such a signal, despite the fact that other stations give me good reports. ----- 73, Stan - KR7C -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/New-KX1-low-power-and-20m-oscillation-tp7531133p7537625.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
