Hi Gang, During my last contest foray, I noticed that making Qs on 15M was difficult. Turns out that with only about 50mW, it is! And 17M is likewise low. The rest of the radio is FB. Also, the current draw on 15/17 is basically the same in RX and XMIT.(My Astron's meter moves about one needle width.) The Power Control has no effect on the 15/17 power levels.
I am hoping that there is some "common" problem that I can easily fix. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I have an RF probe so I can trace the signal to look for loss. Would be nice to start close to the expected problem area. 73, Mark K2QO FN03ra [image: Nuclear Power Yes Please (128x128).png] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
