Just bought a K1..an oldie but a goodie, I guess. NB board and 2 bands board (20/40) No tuner.
So, just playing around, getting familiarized with this new-to-me little rig before transmitting or hooking it up to a real antenna and I notice: on 20m: it tunes from 13.974MHz - 14.063MHz and on it tunes from 40m from 6.980MHz-7.068MHz When I transmit on a nearby rig or compare frequencies to DX cluster spots, just using a chunk of wire for an antenna, and listen for the various stations it looks like the VFO is reading pretty much bang on. So, is this a matter of incorrect components installed or a poor alignment or the (re)seller messing with the "CAL" in the menu or ?? I don't really want to mess with it too much, but I am missing 20-25kHz of usable bandwidth on each band. (seems like I have about 88kHz of tuning range, but 20-26kHz of it is below the bands---oof !) Ideas?
