Hello!
I have noticed a very strong carrier in my K1 on 17 meter, I forgot the exact frequency, but around 18.113 This carrier is still there even with no antenna connected. Is this normal? Yesterday I was portable a few hours and the rig is working fine, but the condx is not very good now.. 73 / SM5KRI/P Chris > End of Elecraft Digest, Vol 28, Issue 8 > *************************************** -- Krister Eriksson Ringduvegatan 23 724 70 Västerås, Sweden [Hamradio: SM5KRI] [ [hidden email] ] _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [hidden email] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Paul, mine is 0n 18.113.7 loud and clear just like a cleane tone, my guess: 6th overtone from VFO, 18.113.7 / 6 gives 3.018 MHz and my VFO is ranged 3.000-3.090. Possible your VFO range is not the same as mine. I can also hear this on my portable Sangean world receiver. If I multiply 3.018 by 2, 3 and 4 etc also these frequencies is well heard on the sangean RX. Well in that case nothing to do i guess, I just dont need to operate around 18.113 Mc:s... Perhaps the VFO area in the K1 should be inside some sort of shielding, and passing thru a low-pass filter before the premix... 73 have a good day, / Chris tis 2006-08-08 klockan 03:02 -0700 skrev Paul Gates, KD3JF: > Krister, I hear the noise on 18.115.7 and am not sure what it is. > > Paul, KD3JF > Glen Burnie, Maryland > > Krister Eriksson <[hidden email]> wrote: > Hello! > > I have noticed a very strong carrier in my K1 on 17 meter, I > forgot the > exact frequency, but around 18.113 This carrier is still there > even > with no antenna connected.
