I've been watching it now for 30 minutes and its really loud here in southeastern Michigan. With QSB it fluctuates from +20 to +40 on my wire 160-80-40-30-17m vertical/INV-L. On my Hi-Z 4 sq rx antenna it appears to be northeast of me with up to +45/9 peak signals and nulls to S9 pointing southwest. All of this on a K3S at 2:30 local time (1930z). Big QSB swings of 20db and more.

It's S9+5dB here in coastal VA and seems to be loudest from my NE quadrant
as I use my K9AY Loop to receive it.  Using CW  Skimmer to observe it I can
see some sort of rather deep drops in the received signal lasting only
several milliseconds that is not related to any QSB.  I also see upper and
lower sideband info that is about 100Hz or less which seems to be also
present at times.

Yep - I hear it too.   It's strongest on a 60 degree heading from San Jose,
CA - not particularly helpful as this includes most of the NA continent.

I had a 20M PSK31 QSO once with an OM in NY who must have been called away.
His PSK31 idle tone was constant over a long holiday weekend until he
returned home and saw his rig in TX.

It happens.

I'm not real sure that you have an issue, Vincent. I hear the same carrier..

and I'm sure that you would know if your KX3 is actually transmitting it.
Someone, somewhere, will find the stuck key, sometime..
Good Luck,

Hello ALL,
I have a dead carrier on my kx3 and other receiver I use with the same
carrier. The only thing I can think of is my computer. But the signal is the
same anywhere in my home. Has anyone had this happen to there kx3?
Thank you all,
 Vincent Diak- wb2pdw
