Couple questions:

1.Can some Guru tell me where WHAT the little spikes at +/-  300 and 600 cycles 
from the CW  carrier  (down about 40 dB) are when looking at a -73 dBm  from 
a  XG1 or XG2 ?

2. I am curious what you typically see for the delta in dB  between the 
average baseline say at 10 msec averaging and the peak line on the P3 with 
no antenna on the K3.

Re: [Elecraft] P3 Artifacts

Jim,

Have you tried re-dressing the ribbon cable routing inside the P3? That 
is an important item.  Check the P3 assembly manual to make certain the 
cables are routed in the proper manner.

I have the problem that has been discussed in detail.  When I tune to certain 
frequencies, I will get a blip on the screen that is 5-6 dB above the noise 
and I have the classic artifact that is ~3 kHz wide and 4-5 dB above the noise floor, 
that is just below the tuned frequency.  I have the ribbon cable dressed to the LHS of 
the chassis and the coax on the RHS (when looking at the P3 display).

Yes, the ribbon cable is routed in the 
proper manner per Elecraft 
recomendations.

Re: [Elecraft] P3 Artifacts On The Waterfall Display

2012-03-19 Thread Dave New, N8SBE
Do you have any transverters or other possible spurious noise sources
hooked up?

I noticed that once I hooked up my Elecraft 2 M and 70 cm transverters
that noticeable spurious lines started showing up.  I haven't had time
to try to chase it down, yet.

 I have noticed that there are several white lines showing in the waterfall
 display that do not move when I change frequency.  Some are fuzzy and some
 are well defined narrow lines. All these lines are vertical and would appear
 to be signals except that when I tune toward the signal they never change
 their position on the display. Real signals  can be tuned into and the
 waterfall shows their change to the center of the display.  It is really
 noticeable on 10  20 and 50 but does not seem to be happening at all on 15
 and 40. The rest of the bands have the problem to a lesser degree.
 
  
 
 Any ideas?

Hi Jack, 

If you take a screen shot, do they show there?
