Harvey, Re-check the VCO range (voltage on the left end of R30), and be certain all the ands fall within the proper range. It is normal for the VCO voltage to become so small below 5300 kHz that the tuning will not continue on down to 5000 Hz. Also the response of the bandpass filter may fall off quite a bit at 5000 Hz which will reduce the ability to hear at that frequency.
I cannot speak to your 'buzz-saw' - you will have to be more specific. 73, Don W3FPR > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Harvey Howell > Sent: Tuesday, May 30, 2006 9:53 AM > To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net > Subject: [Elecraft] K60XV Problem > > > Hello everyone.
