KXV144 Question

Joe Malloy
Hi, folks, I just installed the KXV144 in my K3 and all went smoothly --
it even works, after a fashion.  I have this one teensy problem...

...it's not transmitting on the frequency (simplex) it says it's on.

I know about setting ALT for -/+ or simplex, I've got the ADR set to
internal transverter, power and all other settings are nominal and the
frequency offsets for 144 and 146 Mhz are entered...

...but it still not transmitting right.  What could I be overlooking?

(By the way, in receives very nicely!  After I get this problem solved
I'll start looking down around 144 Mhz.)

Many thanks!

73,

Joe, W2RBA

Re: KXV144 Question

OK, what frequency is it transmitting on? What frequency did you want?
What is the actual offset?

How have you determined that the problem is the frequency? Does it
work correctly when you do use the transmit offset feature?

Here is an 'odd' question: Are you trying to use a CTSS tone?
