At 10% of all CW on 10m, it's probably a combination of splatter and frequency proximity. The roofing filter will only help with the latter problem

I can hear such stations up to several KHz away. I suspect the range is limited by the audio response of the system, including my ears. Both sides of zero beat, though less so on the opposite side of the zero beat. In the CA QSO Party this weekend, maybe the loudest 10% of the stations on 10 CW Saturday afternoon were leaking through. (I've heard the leakage on other bands as well.) I don't have any roofing filters. (I figured any stations weak enough for me to need the filter to hear, would never be able to hear me anyway). Is this normal, or is there some shielding or other issue affecting my unit? (It is a kit version). 73 - Jim K8MR ______________________________________________________________ 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 ______________________________________________________________ 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
