Hello! There will always be a cross-talk between antenna ports on KAT100. If u put on unused antenna port some 50 ohm dummy the crosstalk will be lower. I did measure crosstalk between ports on my KAT100 now aprox results are:
28Mhz 35 dB with unterminated ANT 2 port and around 40dB with terminated... I suppose the crosstalk on lower bands is better! 73's Adi -K2-3204 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Walkington" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Elecraft-Reflector" <elecraft@mailman.qth.net> Sent: Monday, January 24, 2005 12:17 PM Subject: [Elecraft] Strange K2 Behaviour - KAT100 Antenna Isolation > Hi All, > > Continuing the theme of describing strange K2 behaviour!
