Question For you KX1 experts... I am in the process of building a KX1 and I am currently doing the Receiver Alignment as described on page 45 of the manual.
I am stuck. I don't understand the VFO frequency readout. My KX1 is behaving differently then the description in the manual and I am not sure what kind of mistake I am making or if there is something wrong with the KX1 at this stage (although, all tests and functionality have shown to be OK up until this point). Here is the problem. The manual says (page 64) that when you tap the BAND button that the LED readout will the frequency, first showing the MHz, then KHz. Then, it says that L or U are added in LSB or USB modes. But, when I tap the BAND button, I get the MHz readout of 7 then I get two readouts following that as 080 and then 80.0 and only on this third number display is the decimal point lit up. Thus, tapping the BAND button displays 7, then 080, and then 80.0. Now, I can use the VFO Tune to adjust this final number but I am not sure why I am getting three numbers whereas the manual says that I would get two. Also, I don't see how to pick a particular frequency as the VFO Tune control and the LED readout do not seem to correspond in a manner that makes sense. So, I am missing something. For example, if the frequency were something like 7.058 then I would expect the first number to be 7, the second number to be 058. Can someone set me straight? 73, phil, K7PEH ______________________________________________________________ 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
