Lyle is on vacation and didn't get that memo. He's above and beyond the call of duty posting at all :) Also note that the latest production KX3 RF board (rev. E) has the synth circuitry a lot farther from the PA and driver. This significantly reduced the thermal gradient. (The other major Rev.

Re: [Elecraft] KX2 on JT65 & JT9 ??

The local oscillator design of the KX2 is very different from the KX3, as are the thermal isolation of the oscillator from the PA and the high current paths in the radio. There is as yet no field temperature compensation procedure available for the KX2 nor is it clear that one is needed. At

The moon bounces around and causes some pretty good doppler. Good thing that JT65-HF also has AFC built in. http://www.packetradio.com/pdfzips/jt65-hf-setup.pdf *AFC enables automatic frequency control and will attempt to follow a signal that exhibits drift. Its original intent is to compensate

Re: [Elecraft] KX2 on JT65 & JT9 ??

Dan Issues with not being able to communicate with JT65 have nothing to do with frequency stability. It has to do with just not being heard. :) Like all other digital modes, you require Transmit and Receive Audio and a PTT line. I would be very very very surprised that a KX2 can't handle
