This evening I was working 40 meter CW using a 500 KHz filter and had pushed the NR button to help out hearing a station, after about 10 seconds I heard the dreadful screech. The NR was set for F2--4. This is the only time that I after heard it. I was using ear phones but luckily I only wear them half on most of the time. I hope the new firmware version coming out will cure this problem.
Thanks to the people at Elecraft for the work that you do. Len K3LJ Joe Planisky wrote: > > Hi Allan, > > Back on Sept 6 & 7, there were a couple of reports of it still > happening on 3.30.
