The receiver front end was changed, but I do not believe it was compromised in adding 80 meters. It is likely you have something wrong there. I have found the typical receive sensitivity improved on all bands after installation of the KXB8030. No drastic improvement, but definitely not worse than the 2/3 band receiver front end. 73, Don W3FPR > -----Original Message----- > > I agree on the receiver sensitivity.
