Wes, try it with a 6M antenna attached. I have found with a number of 6M rigs over the years that absent an external 6M antenna (or one not properly connected, i.e. a loose PL259), I hear all kinds of birdies on 6M. I have the same situation with my 2M rig. Once the antenna is connected however, the birdies are gone. My hypothesis is that absent an outside antenna, the rig is picking up something from my nearby computer.
Not sure that will help, but it's worth a shot. 73, Lou, W0FK Wes Stewart wrote: > > > <<<snip>>> > > Let me restate, the K3 was operated without an antenna and just a 50-ohm > termination on the antenna connector. > > <<<snip>>> > ----- St. Louis, MO -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Re%3A-Six-meter-birdies-tp2123754p2123926.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
