Mine pops LOUDLY at 1 KHz and then the RX audio is dead unless I change the Shift and/or the Width control then it's a machine gun and LOUD. Glad I did this with the speaker on and not the headphones, I'd be deaf.
Turning APF off doesn't clear the problem either. Reengaging it makes it operate the same. Power off is the only answer. Not ready for primetime although the noise gate is much improved, I'll actually use it. APF, I don't think so. --- On Sat, 11/6/10, Mike <n...@nf4l.com> wrote: From: Mike <n...@nf4l.com> Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Firmware 4.18 APF adjustment using shift control To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Date: Saturday, November 6, 2010, 3:53 PM With 4.17 I had a slight drop in SSB, but no encoder popping/deafness. With 4.18 I get the pops at 1.00, it goes away with a "boop" at .270. It takes a tad (an IEEE term. 1 tad = 3.75 skosh) over 5 minutes to load either one at 4800 baud. My impression is that's a lot longer than previous versions, but I never timed any of them. 73 Mike NF4L On 11/6/2010 2:53 PM, Doug Turnbull wrote: > Richard and fellows, > I too have not experienced the drop in SSB output.
