Mike,

I'd sure be curious if you find out what is causing the NO output on 20 meters. I'm experiencing the same problem and have been doing so for some time. I've done a lot of trouble shooting as well but to no avail.

Do you receive signals on 20 meters? I do.
If I plug in the two band (40 and 20 meter) board all is well on 20 meters so I know the problem lies with the KFL1-4.

In signal tracing I have signals from both 1 and 2 of T1 (pin 1 and 2 respectfully on P1) but when switch to the 20 meter band these readings are considerably lower than the readings for the other bands. On pin 2 of T2 I have no readings for 20 meters but good readings for the other three bands. Pin 4 of P1 likewise shows no signal for 20 meters.

I've checked the board for shorts as well as maybe a bad solder joint but all looks good. Oh yes, my 4 band board worked good for quite a spell before loosing 20 meters. This looks to be a problem experienced
by several of us that have purchased the KFL1-4 board.

I'm looking for a solutions as well and would appreciate input from anyone with an idea. Or, help please.

72,

Works fine on other bands.

It used to work.

I did some signal tracing.
I see signal on pin 1 and 2 of P1 of the filter board for all bands
I signal on pin 2 of T1 on all bands
I see no signal on pin 4 of T1 on 20 meters - good signal on all other
bands.

What could cause this behavior?
Signal is going through T1 on other bands.
Could there be something drawing down the signal on 20 meters?
I looked for shorts and didnt see any on the filter board.
