A couple of days ago I received my K-3 back from Elecraft after having the sub receiver and a few other accessories installed. Unfortunately, the sub receiver does not appear to work. I'm sure it's something dumb that I am overlooking in configuring it.
Basically, I hear no signals. I do hear what appears to be band noise but nothing else. This is on 40 meters during the daytime. I have the configuration set to what I believe is the atu unit. I have only one antenna which is connected to the main antenna 1 connector. The sub receiver sounds as though it has no antenna connected to it. The other choice available on the configuration menu appears to be to connect the sub receiver to the BNC connector which appears to be an auxiliary antenna input which I do not want to use since nothing is connected there. I have both the AF and RF gain controls for the sub receiver turned up full. Can anyone suggest what I may be doing wrong? I want to use the sub receiver so that is connected to the same antenna as the main receiver and transmitter, both of which run through the ATU. I tuned the sub receiver to the same frequency as the main receiver which had a very strong sideband signal and should have been clearly audible by the sub receiver but there was absolutely nothing other than some background hiss. I will appreciate any suggestions. Bruce-W8FU _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
