Hello All I use a K2 and have XV50 and 144. The XV50 seems to be working just fine. However the 144 seems to have a problem. I live far enough away from other operators and had a poor enough antenna that I've not been able to find a test horse to talk to on two ssb or cw. finally made that happen last week. What I found was that the transverter seemed to be working. Receive performance is not as good as I think it should be (I changed out the loop antenna for an eleven element beam fix pointed at the metro area about 100 miles away). I need to run with the preamp on, rf and af gains all the way up to hear BIG stations at 100 miles in good conditions. And even more worrying is that, based on several stations reports my dial reads 12.4 khz high.
From what I can see in the manual there is no alignment for frequency readout as such and the adjustment available from the TRN menu is only 10 khz. In checking the K2 against WWV it seems to be within well less than 100 hz. Suggestions? TNX de David ----- No virus found in this message.
