Re: K3S Radio check? (signal generator)

[dw-4]

I used a simple 4-pin clock-oscillator running at 7.32mhz.
Runs on 5VDC.
Put it in a project box with LM7805 and a 12 inch wire as antenna.
Can't use that as a signal generator for circuit tracing though without
seriously limiting its output.
But it makes for a simple little qrp xmitter.

With nothing attached to K3 ANT1 input, lay the wire next to the K3.
Picked up the signal S9.
Hope you find the issue Jerry.

As it turns out the issues are mostly related to my antenna and operator
error... e.g. not knowing how to correctly use the DSP/AGC/Filters/RF
gain.etc..

Rig is working 100%  PEBKAC error ;)
