Folks - I’ve got my KX3 connected via an MFJ 178B-SDR switch to my computer running SDR++. This gives me a nice BIG pan adapter display on my monitor. Additional software syncs the KX3 with SDR++ and RumLogNG - a logging program. Anyway, When I have the KX3 in CW mode, I see a birdie or spur (not sure the actual name for it) about 500 Hz up from my zero-beat frequency. As I turn the KX3 dial, the spur mores right along with me. It is showing with a signal strength of about -79 db. Now I know that is a really low signal, but it does show up on the display and is a tad annoying. Actually, as I type this I’m on 10.116 and as I was testing, I find that there was a low level signal there, under the birdie. The fact it was being covered up bugs me a bit, too.
No matter what band I go to, my little “buddy” is there with me. If I switch to USB or LSB, it is gone - it only shows up in CW. And if I do CW-R, it switches to about 500 Hz below my frequency. Anyone else have this? Is it something worth reporting to Elecraft, or is it a known “thing”. 72, Jim / K7TXA ______________________________________________________________ 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
