Geo,
It is likely something that "just happened" and is unrelated to the
K160RX installation.
However, is there any way that you can describe "distorted". I can
think of many ways that a CW note would sound distorted, but a bit more
information might be helpful to narrow the field of candida
Built and installed the 160 kit in my K2 (6911) today. After alignment it
works good on all bands transmitting on CW. But on all bands receiving cw
the cw tone is distorted! What could I have done? I removed the K160RX and cw
sigs still distorted. Geo/W2BPI

Mark,
You are correct that you overlooked something. The Errata sheet! If you
read it, it will tell you that there is no need to perform CAL PLL on 160
meters.
It used to be that CAL PLL was done on each band (like when the K160RX
manual was last updated), but it disappeared long ago. CAL PLL n
K2 #5565, KAT2, KAF2, and just added K160RX. Page 9 of K160RX Manual -
3rd action fails with an error of INFO232 - 'CAL PLL on wrong band',
even though I re-checked that VFO displays 1800.10 as directed. I also
checked these actions against my other K2 #5459 with the same result. I
must have
