That doesn't sound normal. Three things to check:- in the KX3, do you have the RX I/Q set to Enabled- on page 16 of the PX3 manual, check the REF and SCALE settings- have you done the side and nulling procedure on page 26? Maybe the gain settings there are not sane. 73, Matt VK2RQ

The one thing that I have issue with is the very poor “sensitivity” of the PX3. I have 59 plus 10 signals on my KX3, however, on the PX3 waterfall the trace is very faint and indistinct. This is on a signal more than 20db above the noise floor !!! I really hate to have to compare, but on my Flex radio’s, you can see signals on the waterfall display that you can barely hear in the receiver. And when signals are reasonably strong, you can analyse the signal to a good degree - you can see if the transmitting station is splattering, overdriving etc With the PX3 the sensitivity is quite poor - with a strong signal you can barely see and analyse the incoming audio. I have tried a number of settings, adjusting contrast etc but I can’t seem to improve it, and guess it’s inherent in the firmware. Am I missing something ? or can it be improved in a future firmware update ? 73 John, ZS5J C91J A25J ______________________________________________________________ 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 Message delivered to matt.vk...@gmail.com ______________________________________________________________ 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 Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
