I.M.H.O only the audio notch is impressive with the KDSP2.
The CW noise reduction is OK, but the SSB has far too many artifacts present to
be useful. Much better results from a BHI external unit.
I do hope that the K3 DSP is better.

Hello everyone here.
Last week , I posted a mail on this list , reporting a problem with my K2.
Strange behaviour , sometimes loosing all the commands on the front pannel ,
sometimes loosing RX sensitivity , and recovering it by pushing band+ and

I just put black tape across all the open holes from the inside. I figure it
might also help with cooling (controlling where air enters and exits).

I ran the beacon monitor Faros by VE3NEA for a few weeks and it was
quite amazing how often DX beacons were detected even on the higher HF
bands even using my modest antenna. I would have loved to be able to
have it running 24/7. It was a real eye-opener. But of course, you
can't work beacons...
I get the same symptoms when the cw plug slides 1mm out and short the
keyline.
Unplugg key if it's in there and plugg in again.
If it only was so simple Dom.
We can hope.

I can confirm that the propagation has been good enough from the UK on 20m
also. A couple of weeks back we spent a week in the Outer Hebrides solely to
play radio (helped being on an island with antennas optimised for low angle
radiation) and we worked Japan (never heard a pileup from JA before)
Don't know where you got that info from. I have a sticker also; number 0009.
Able to leap tall pileups with a
single call. :)
OK...so my sticker is presently on my old rear panel...but I still have one. :)

Hi Don,
Thanks for this. I can confirm that my problem was yet another
manifestation of the open circuit RFC15 - although with a twist. I found
that I could only get stable performance by having the top cover on as well,
then running CAL PLL. Running this routine without the top cover

Being from San Diego, I'm very concerned about all the fires in the

Lack of spots has never stopped DX contesting. Tune in this weekend
for the CQWW DX SSB contest (yeah, it is phone...ugh). You'll be
dazzled by all the DX on 20, 15, and maybe even some good stuff on
10 if you are there enough (not just trans-equatorial).
As for the sun...here is today's photo

My KX1 managed to snag some good DX over the past two
weekends without sunspots.
I spent some time this past weekend and the one before
with the KX1 experimenting with some different
portable antennas. I did all the operation in a park
and used an AA battery pack for about 3-4W output,

I believe that the front panel PCB underwent a change somewhere along
the line - incorporating the changes recommended to the AF gain control.
