Good Evening,
Twenty meters had moderate QSB with one distant storm. On forty
meters there were more, closer storms. Static crashes wiped out letters
now and then. 40 had less QSB with weaker signals. It felt good to
listen to silence after the net.
On 14050.5 kHz at 2200z:

Do the headphones work? Are you sure that the mic is plugged all the

Actually, I had (have) this very same problem and brought it up on here quite
some time ago. CM-500, mic and phones plugged into proper jacks on rear,
preamp on, bias on, mic gain at max, mic right at my lips, and I still have to
talk very loudly to get any response out of the ALC meter. I

This may sound like a silly question, but are you sure you have the plugs in
the right way round? i.e. Not swapped over.
AFAIK this problem has not been reported on the K4 reflector and I know other
folks are using them.

Please join us on 3784 kHz (NOTE THE NEW FREQUENCY), 9PM ET Sunday
(0100Z Monday). Note that the net stays on the same local time, when we
switch back and forth to/from Daylight time, so the UTC time changes,
but not the local time.
Now that we have moved into Daylight time and have longer
Well...I'm blessed to live in a region with No* lightening activity, so
generally have ignored doing all the preventative work.
*We hear thunder about once every 4-5 years and see lightening even less
often.
But winter wind brings static build-up on exposed metal (antennas and
wires) so

I am hoping I can find out a problem I have with my KXPA100 amp and
KXAT100. The "on" LED
is flashing every 4 seconds. Also when connected to the KX3 the menu
item ATU DATA is replaced
by 2 horizontal bars and a beep tone. Disconnect the PA and the KX3
shows the correct menu item.
