and without even putting the jumper in the
audio hiss was there when I turned the KX1 on. I put the KXAT1 back in and
it came fully alive with all bells and whistless working like a charm.
What the hack is going on here? Anybody seen this before?

listening to receive, I am hearing
signals, but not nearly as strong as I hear them on any other receiver in
the shack on the same antenna.
I did NOT notice that. If it still occurs even after you have the alignment
straight, I'd say something isn't right.

of the mod? Wouldn't that constitute
a considerable effect on battery life, even when one is not transmitting
all the time...
Seems like a high price to pay for what, half an S-point in signal strength.
What do you guys think/already found out?

mA
0.8 W @ 20m, 280 mA
There's two things I'm interested in:
1) Leaving out the results for 80m, is this KX1 a candidate for the Power Mod?
2) See next e-mail (to keep the subject on topic)

Nothing is 'up', Bart. You have the latest v1.02 firmware fitted. The
notes for the firmware explains that the upper sidetone limit is 650Hz.
My KX1 came with this firmware, so I never checked the firmware notes.
That explains it, thanks David.

Brian,
I also notice that when I transmit now, I only get one LED at the far left of
the display to pop on...it used to show three or four...external meter shows
3w usually.
This is normal behaviour for a KX1 without the antenna tuner. Only with the
KXAT1 in place it displays power output with
to handle, but this particular one has
survived many of my attempts to tune 'Ant2'

Manual says STP can be varied from 500 to 700 Hz. Mine will not go higher
than 650 Hz. What's up?

The manual says C1 (4.7 pF) shoud be mounted on the top side of the board,
which is also where it's outline is printed. But the schematic in Appendix
B indicates it should be 5pF and mounted on the bottom.
Can I savely assume the schematic to be wrong?

and
read it front to back, back to front and probably sideways too. Applied the
changes mentioned in the errata. It was great pre-fun only to be topped by
the fun of the building itself. See if you can negotiate this with the wife

page manual: I figured it would be small enough to be up to date.
Apparently not.
I'll check the website again for the other kits I've received just to make
sure. There is always a chance new errata's are published.
Lesson learned, ymmv.

I've always wanted to try some kind of

it would seem to move.
This has been on my mind too for a long time. I even seem to recall I've
got a

Well worth it.

Heil discontinued the hand mic. Yes, we are working on a
new one, but it will be a little bit before we get them
to market.
Which leads to the question: why? Some of us who already have one may
wonder what's wrong with it

soldered as far away from eachother
as possible. I'm not sure, as this is my first KSB2. I'd rather not start
messing with them now they are already in there.

I may have been unclear in my original post. The wire got scraped while
winding the RFC, I didn't scrape it during installation.

how long it
would have taken me to find this one if I hadn't done it right away. From
the schematic I'd say it would have introduced some weird filter switching
problems

Is there any advantage (i.e. save power) in switching the IO-port off when
not in use?
Any other reason not to leave it 'On' forever once the KIO2 is installed?
Just curious.
