Chris -
Do not be misled by the fact that on CW the K2 transmits on the
frequency as displayed, whereas many of the oriental black boxes
transmit a fixed number of Hz (maybe 600Hz) different to the displayed
frequency to give the required offset.
I have encountered a similar problem with
David, thanks. I think I have sorted it all, at least on CW! I have
just re-aligned with the Spectrograph. The MP has on offset in the
display I recall, so displayed is actual frequency, (I think!)
Now, simulating a QSO, ie transmitting on K2 and tuning in on MP, then
txing on MP and
Chris,
What you are seeing is correct. Only when you go onto transmit will you see the
effect of the XIT on the frequency readout. If you want to know exactly what
frequency you will be transmitting on with XIT selected then you can select the
RIT as well. Of course you need to deselect the RIT
Chris,
hen the K2 is in receive, the receive frequency only is displayed. In
transmit, the transmit frequency is displayed (hard to see during keying).
Check the K2 manual page 94 for information on how RIT and XIT work - when
XIT is on, you can see the transmit frequency during receive by also
Firstly thanks to everyone who answered my query, either on the
Reflector or privately. I can confirm that everything that you all
suggest should happen is happening. So from the RIT/XIT point there is
no problem with my K2 and I was using it correctly. On rethinking this I
wonder if I have
Thanks Don. I will check tmw, it's getting late here now. Maybe I have
got the wrong sideband, that would certainly explain a lot.
Yes, that is what I was doing. Just toggling RIT button to check when he
was txing and then to find the station he was working.
BTW, thanks. You gave me my own
