What antenna and antenna system (including feed system) do you have? The entire antenna system, along with bandwidth and local noise floor, has a huge effect on things. As Don pointed out, if we hear a reasonable drop in noise when the antenna is disconnected (using the narrowest bandwidth in the least noisy direction) the rig is sensitive enough. 73 Tom ______________________________________________________________ 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
