First, confirm that you can hear it yourself on a monitor receiver, then try a dummy load to eliminate "RF feedback" issues - they can be quite frequency-sensitive!
If it's still there, I'd first do the VCO Cal as Julian suggested. Shoot, "tjouping" is a great description for slow, broad chirp. I'm American and had a signal like that for a while in the 50's from a couple of rigs. One was a WWII surplus Russian Tank Transmitter :-) Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- Hello, This evening I was warned by a friend that my signal sounded like an old "Russian" station (sri guys), "tjouping" (I really don't know what other word to use) Details: Release 3.14 / 2.16 Split operation (calling TX3A) Sub RX OFF RX 10.114,20 Mc TX 10.118,38 Mc Amplifier switched off, Running 80 W I used my second K3 to listen to my own signal. During transmitting (10.118) I turned the Main RX dial and when moving away from 10.114 the effect disappeared gradually. When moved 5Kc up or down it was gone. Any clue? 73's, Evert PA2KW ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
