What happens if you then disconnect the antenna from ANT 1? It's probably a long shot, but if a signal is strong enough, it is possible to hear it with no antenna hooked up at all. I have observed this many times. Sometimes just having the end of the coax near the rig's antenna connector will allow me to receive a signal - sometimes I don't even need that. -- 73, Brian VE7NGR _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
