Yay! Me too! Much easier than sending off to Elecraft for a new X1. When I tune the RWM pips with fast AGC, it properly goes "pip sssSSSHH pip sssSSSHH pip sssSSSHH", and more importantly, when I turn the AGC OFF, the rig doesn't go deaf. The S-Meter looks a whole lot more believable too, the rig feels a whole lot more sensitive, and now I can turn AGC off, I can confirm that my N-GEN really does work after all! That was a very worthwhile 3 minutes at the iron. :-) > Thanks to Gary, Wayne and everybody on the list for their support. > Its great how this group works together. Seconded, and thanks to Werner! Anyone else with a serial number in the high 5100s or low 5200s... If you are seeing AGC problems (hold PRE/ATT and AGC, see if you go deaf), check your junk box for a 10pF cap and change control board C8. Wayne says 680 pF at C7 may be another option. -- "Nosey" Nick Waterman, G7RZQ, K2 #5209. use Std::Disclaimer; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Design: The activity of preparing for a design review. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
