Joseph, Since you have a good frequency reading at TP3, the PLL Reference Oscillator is working, and the problem is in the area of Q18. So we move the problem area on the schematic to the upper right corner of the RF Board schematic sheet 1. Note that the VFO output goes through U3 before it

I concur. It's not kosher under any circumstances to post someone else's personal information without their permission. Security isn't a trivial matter on the Internet these days. 73, LS W5QD -- View this message in context:

Do note that Foxjazz himself included his call in the subject line of the post that started this thread. Not the usual place to be sure, but I doubt his intention in doing so was to remain anonymous. 73 -- Joe KB8AP On Apr 17, 2010, at 11:58 PM, The Smiths wrote: For you to not only give

It doesn't matter - it's 100% improper to post personal information for someone else, even if that information is obtainable elsewhere. It's up to N0XDB to post his/her name if he/she so chooses, not Don or anyone else. As I said, personal privacy isn't a trivial matter, particularly these days.

Hi, That would be a real shame, Don, if you were to leave the reflector. Your postings have always been extremely helpful. Personally I am highly suspicious of anonymous postings on ham forums. As licensed hams there is no way for us to hide as we have it all hanging out on FCC's web site. Most

I'll stop pouring gas on this after this post, but to reiterate a few things: Name and call sign is not personal information, it is a matter of public record It's the principle involved, not the happenstance that Don simply printed something about this person that's a matter of public record.

Hello Elecraft, Hello Don, I had the pll working before I did phase 3 and put the ssb board in. It was working great, now it isn't. I thought I would run a quick voltage test before continuing. Now the pll freq is 0.000 I reviewed the test results and re-tinned T5 just to ensure

Foxjazz, Do you have a real name and a call? We here on the Elecraft reflector certainly would like to know if you do. Q6 on what board has the bad resistance reading? The Q6 on the RF board has nothing to do with your PLL problem. Is it at TP3 that you are getting a reading of 0.00 kHz?
