Re: [Elecraft] Noise from KAT500?

To me, it sounds like that when the ATU is inline (& I presume you let it tune to that antenna at some point.  Yes/No?) The antenna is better matched to the transmission line, so more of the on-air "ambient" noise is delivered to the RX. I get the same here, where 60m is quite noisy anyway.
