Hi Alexandr, I have not noticed any drift at all with my K144XV with internal temperatures to +60 degrees C. I must admit though at this stage I have not used it for digital modes, only SSB + FM. No-one has ever commented about any drift on my signal.

I mean some experience with JT data mode in EME or similar. Is there some drift on 144MHz signal (during longer TX period) and how much if any? Thanks for any practical experience, 73!
