More gain at the 28MHz IF would be the worst possible option from the viewpoint of dynamic range on 144MHz. If your K144XV meets the specification in the data sheet (system MDS -144dBm, and assuming a 500Hz bandwidth) then you should be hearing 2m antenna noise quite clearly in your suburban location. 73 from Ian GM3SEK ______________________________________________________________ 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 Message delivered to [email protected]
