2004-09-15 Thread Treat Hull
I recently completed a K1 with the 4-band board including the 20M and 15M bands and I am having difficulty trouble-shooting a receiver problem on both 20M and 15M. The receiver powered up fine and reception on 40M and 30M is much better than my other rig, a Kenwood TS-50. At the same time, rece
