Not everyone has the same antenna system or distance from potential noise sources, which could explain all the differing opinions. In my shack, where a fluorescent lamp is located only four feet from the rig, I recently switched from a 40 meter coax-fed dipole to a random wire with counterpoise directly into the K3, no coax. Lots of noise. Turn the switch off, noise goes away. Not a problem with coax-fed dipole. --Andrew, NV1B maineware.net .. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
