Just thought I'd pass this along in case others may have
experienced something similar...
Over the weekend in the WPX contest I noticed that I was
occasionally being replied to as EA3IU rather than K3IU.
After the first couple of times, I noticed that each time
that it happened, I had just made a large frequency change
on a band and the KAT500 had briefly reacted with a small
change. Thinking about it, if the first element of the K (
_._ ) is being shortened by action of the KAT500, then what
was being sent would certainly be interpreted as EA( . . _ )
rather than K. I'll do some testing with a separate receiver
(my K2) and see if I can duplicate it. I'll also re-read the
manual on the KAT500 to see if I can make it less sensitive
to in-band freq changes. I know that there are changes in
settings that can be made.
73, Ken K3IU
