I guess I said it wrong - I was referring to the VCO Test in Part 2 for the RF Board. After the PLL Reference Oscillator Test, I changed bands to 80 meters and was about to adjust frequency to 4000.10 when the Info 080 message popped up again. As I stated, when using CAL FCTR the frequency I found at this point (after the Info 080 message had appeared) was around 10800.00 - slightly above the 8 to 10 MHz range specified. However, it was fairly stable.
After attempting another 456 reset this afternoon, the Info 080 message persists, just like it did before, with the same 00000.00 frequency reading, and the same last character that looks like a 2 missing one segment (not a c). Additionally, something I didn't mention before but had happened before as well, when the Info 080 message appears at this stage, the LCD appears to default, or revert, to the day setting - the green backlight goes out. It just feels like a hardware issue to me, from what I've experienced with computer troubleshooting in the past. The same exact problems appeared at the same exact point in the tests...and everything else, test wise, had worked fine up until this point. The problem for me is that I'm not nearly knowledgeable enough about the circuits involved, or what individual components in the circuits do, to know where the actual issue lies... -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/Info-080-message-started-with-RF-Alignment-and-Test-Part-II-tp7564545p7564703.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ 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
