Hi all, I have been building my Elecraft K2 serial 7179 since July 2011, it works fine since day one and it has the KAT2, KIO2, KNB2, K160RX, KSB2 and the just installed KAF2. I always notice that the my MDS readings whit the XG2 on 20 Meters band are 4 dB lower, I can read -135dBm (pre-amp ON, AGC OFF, Filter 700Hz, KAF2 in out position) on 40 meters but can only read -131dBm on 20 meters in the same conditions. Is this usual, or should I start looking at something? Another question is about AGC threshold setting, mine is at 3,55V. I get that value from adjusting R1 until I can barely ear any difference in noise between AGC ON and OFF whit 700Hz Filter on CW no antenna connected. It seems good to me, but in what way am I loosing for having a low value.
Any help or idea please. 73 Pedro CT7AEZ _..._ ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
