Re: [Elecraft] Interesting K3 QRM problem
You're right, it will roll off on the high end, too, but the rolloff rate is usually much less steep especially if series-tuned. An analysis of my tuner shows that it would be only about 20 dB down at 30 MHz (when tuned on 40 meters) when parallel-tuned, and only about 10 dB down when series-tuned. (A really versatile tuner allows you to switch the output capacitors between series and parallel. This allows it to match a very wide range of impedances, and I think you'd have to homebrew a tuner to be able to do this, unless one of the commercially made tuners can switch.)

Re: [Elecraft] Interesting K3 QRM problem
Yes, the solution to the problem was a highpass filter between the vertical antenna and the K3 ANT1 connector.

Re: [Elecraft] Interesting K3 QRM problem
Maybe, and if you're right, my suggestion may not help. But you misunderstood my suggestion. There is an insert point between the T/R switch and the RX input. That's the RX loop I was talking about -- you insert the filter there. The insert point is *after* the PIN diode T/R switches for both the HPA (KPA3) and 10W LPA. Given Vic's description, it is likely the noise is being generated in one or more of the PIN diodes in the T/R switching and placing the highpass filter in the insert point will not resolve the noise. Vic, you can bypass (disable) the KPA3 to see if the noise generation is in the KPA3 T/R switch. 73, ...

Re: [Elecraft] Interesting K3 QRM problem
This doesn't apply in Vic's case here, but his situation reminds me of yet another benefit of using a link-coupled tuner with balanced line feeding a horizontal antenna in the center. A balanced link-coupled tuner turns out to be a high-pass filter, so while you're tuning it up on a ham band, it's rejecting stuff in the AM broadcast band. When tuned on 80 meters, I've measured the 1400 kHz rejection of my tuner at about 40 dB. Forty dB makes a 50 kW signal sound like a 5 W signal. I might be in bad shape if I didn't have this tuner. Another good thing to remember when planning an antenna installation.

Re: [Elecraft] Interesting K3 QRM problem
It isn't necessary to filter the loop. What is happening is that BC RF is coming into the ANT1 connector of the K3 from the vertical, where it is mixing up with every other signal around, probably in the t/r switch section. Then the IMD products (which are on numerous frequencies) are getting re-radiated by the vertical, and they are picked up by the loop. You can see this by hooking the loop to RX IN and listening. The noise is only there when you plug the vertical into ANT1. I made a 4-pole Butterworth filter that cuts off at 2.5 MHz using the filter design program that came with the ARRL handbook, husky enough to transmit through, and put it on the ANT1 connector. That did it -- no more noise on either antenna. If Wayne would like me to test the Elecraft filter I will be happy to do so. It will be interesting to compare to my homemade one.

Re: [Elecraft] Interesting K3 QRM problem
Oh, I didn't think of a trap. Simpler than a filter. But I have already designed a 4-pole HP filter that will knock out all of the BC band, which in this location is probably a good idea. There are some very powerful AM BC stations in the Middle East. If my filter doesn't work I'll fall back to a trap.
