John,

It sounds like you need to adjust the BFO settings for the FL1 SSB filter. You can do that in receive. It is best if you do that using a visual aid like an audio spectrum analyzer to be able to see the position of the filter passband in the audio spectrum. Spectrogram is one such analyzer - it runs on your computer and soundcard. Non-Windows folks will have to find some other program.

To see how to set up and use Spectrogram 5.17 download the .pdf at http://www.mmccs.com/mmarc/n0ss/k2_filters_using_gram_v5r17.pdf.

You can download Spectrogram from my website www.w3fpr.com. On the home page, scroll near the bottom to find the links. Both versions 5.17 and 16 are there.

Hello Elecraft Community,

I have recently built the K2/10 and have enjoyed listening to the receiver.  I

either very high-pitched or low-pitched on an external receiver while using a 
50-ohm dummy load.

After spending some time on the issue of SSB voice on transmit, I realized that 
if I mistune the K2 on transmit that my voice would appear to sound normal with 
no humming on an external receiver.  The following are examples:
