Report of all highs ans no lows in transmetted signal on K2

[Vince Santis]

I haven't used my Kw for some time  and fired it up yesterday. H had
reports of high in my signal to the point  of not being recognized  by
people I talk to to routinely.

I've searched the manual  and find no  adjustment for the problem. Any help
out there?

 

Thanks,

Vince Santis, N1VS

Vince,

There is an adjustment - it is the alignment for the SSB FL1 filter - it
must be the OP1 filter, and the low frequency -3dB 'corner' of the
passband should be set close to 300 Hz.  I suggest using Spectrogram so
you can see the passband visually.  See the instructions in Part 3 of
the article on K2 Dial Calibration on my website www.w3fpr.com.

Do check the BFO range as well (before adjusting the filters) to make
certain it has not shifted while the K2 was not used.  If it has
shifted, an unsoldered connection is the most likely problem.
