Audio on K3
Locked
 
|
I powered up my K3 and discovered that the audio was very distorted. It sounds as if everyone is off frequency and no amount of tuning will clear it up. I was using 20 meter SB and it is the same on all other frequencies except 2 meter. I checked all settings that I use and nothing has changed. I had no problem the night before and problem was found on powering up the radio today. I also use KPA-500 and KTA-500 with this setup. I also checked and it is the same on both receivers. This unit was sent to Elecraft to be checked over and aligned about 3 months ago and has been working great. This radio has had all updates installed. Anybody have information on where to start looking for problem would greatly appreciated.

I have sometimes had similar problems. Usually resolved by reloading
the latest configuration file - you did save one? George, W3HBM On 4/30/2017 6:32 PM, louis a. ives wrote: > I powered up my K3 and discovered that the audio was very distorted.

I find that sometimes I, or RF from my wifi keyboard/mouse,
accidentally enables RIT. Have you checked that RIT is not enabled? 73 de, Ian, KM4IK On Sun, 2017-04-30 at 22:32 +0000, louis a. ives wrote: > I powered up my K3 and discovered that the audio was very > distorted.

A Long shot - -
Is the radio on "LSB" or "USB"? If you're listening on 20m it should be in the USB mode. Is it?
