KX-3 (2517) with Elecraft Mic and all features & modules. SSB and FM modes on VHF is terrible while HF SSB is clean.
Elecraft cable sets, Firmware loaded for the 2M module and updated again this morning. Problem 1: Zero SSB output on my VHF power meter no matter the mic setting but the RF does travel to a nearby SSB monitor receiver, I can hear my voice with lots of hash and it is not Mic feedback but hash noise that will trigger an external amp giving constant output instead of following the voice peaks or no voice. Mic gain from 5 - 50, Compression is zero. Problem 2: There is a lot of hash audio noise in the SSB monitor signal when there is no speech there is some SSB output strength on the monitor receiver, ditto for the tune mode. Mic gain can be varied 2-10 with the noise audible from the monitor receiver (FT817) Compression level is zero. HF SSB has had no complaints. Thanks for your help, Bill K6ACJ SERIAL 2517 Antenna, SWR bridge, coax and power sources verified by using another all mode FM/SSB radio (FT-817).
