I have also noticed somewhat reduced sensitivity on 20M, but sort of expected that.
Into a 50 ohm dummy load, and into 1.0-1.1 SWR antennas, I get about 3.3-3.5 watts out on 40M, 4 watts on 30M, and 3.0 watts on 20M. Have re-aligned...get the same. Is this typical? I didn't experience any frustration with 30M module. It all seemed to go together just fine for me. I've had dozens of QSOs with my KX1, and only have one unusual behavior (of the KX1...we won't go into mine) to report. Sometimes I get noise that is there when the LEDs are on, and goes away when the LEDs time out. Has anyone else experienced that? It does not happen all the time. Furthermore, it seems to be more likely to happen when I've been operating for a period of time, say at least 30-60 minutes. Anyway, I'm very pleased with the KX1. Just put together a little portable battery pack that uses two 4-AA cell packs and one 2-AA cell pack that I populate with NiMH batteries. It gives me about 12 volts for portable operation.
