Well, this is a strange deal and I'm not seeing anything in the archives
relative to this particular situation.
Just installed the KSB2 in K2 # 6272...................
Finished the alignment and filter settings....
Figured I would play with it for awhile and see how it does. WRONG
:-)
Low power on all bands except 40 mtrs. ( on SSB ) No / or very weak ALC /
RF response regardless of SSBA and SSBC settings.
It's fine on 40 mtrs with good drive and output.
This is still a QRP K2 with KAT2, KNB2 and now KSB2 installed.....
All tests and alignments were spot on and the rig works like a dream on CW
on all bands. All functions are working as they should etc.
I switch mic's and no change. ( before I realized it was fine on 40 )
I have an external watt meter in line with the antenna and it shows 40
meters around 10 watts while all other bands are down around 1 or 2 watts
( including 80 )
Rig shows good ALC and RF on the bar graff on 40 but very weak on all other
bands.
I wondered if the tuner was giving some problems so changed modes to CW and
it has lots of power on all bands. ( check each band comparing CW to SSB
and no power on SSB while CW if fine )
I'm guessing it's something I overlooked but it's been a long day. I'll dig
into this tomorrow. Any ideas of what I missed would certainly be
appreciated.
Thanks and 72: Jerry N0JRN
