Poor shield connections on PL259s are a very common source of RFI problems, and they often grow worse over time. So check all of your PL259s very carefully - not just at the equipment site but also further down the line. 73 from Ian GM3SEK ______________________________________________________________ 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
