A few days ago one of my K3's appeared to have suddenly gone almost deaf. Here are some of the symptoms and observations:
- Rig's S meter shows very low or no background noise (strong stations can still be heard weakly). - P3 shows <S0 signal strength. - I can hear strongest stations, they just make it to ~S1. - Overall effect appears to be similar to having big attenuator in line. - Problem is antenna independent. - Rig transmits fine, low SWR, etc. - Both main and sub receivers have the symptoms. I've check most "obvious" things: RF gain, etc., (but there are a lot of buttons and MENU/CONFIG settings to inadvertently push on the radio...) I would appreciate any suggestions of what else to look for or reports of similar problems from others before I ship it off to Elekraft. 73 and thanks - John, W4AU ______________________________________________________________ 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]
