Hi Group,
I've just finished an XV144 Transverter for another Ham who lives just
down the street for me while I'm waiting for my K2 to clear VK Customs (
Bummer ).
We fired it up today and all went well...very well in fact, but one
thing I did notice with the counter plugged into the 144 Mhz Output
through a 30db pad, I could see a reading on the counter up above 6Ghz
with the XV144 in Rx Mode. Removing the IF Driver made no difference,
and removing the RF lead from the Transverter output did...i.e the
signal is coming from the XV144. My counter is good to 18Ghz and needs
around -30dbm to get a lock. I cannot have a look at the output as my
Spectrum analyser gives up the fight at 1.8 Ghz.
Any ideas on what I'm seeing here...and does it need attention. All
other tests appear fine and the Transverter works FB on 144 MHz.
