An odd display started yesterday on my panadapter as follows:
A swept signal appears on either side of the center red line of the
panadapter. If I move to a different frequency the swept signal does not
move on the screen and I can never cause the swept signal to be in the green
band pass
Sometimes I will have images appear above and below the center frequency. A
simple exit and reenter the PWRSDR solves the problem.

It must be an actual signal. Disconnecting the antenna removes the signal.
And I notice that I can now shift the signal into the passband.
Someone/something is generating the odd signal.
Thanks,

I live out in the countryside on a dead-end road (in the middle of a

band are filled with spurious signals that go away when I remove the
antenna (or connect to a 50-ohm dummy load). I have tried turning off my

A, the double edge sword of the Panadapter. It is the best and worst thing

No need to repeat the accolades of the Panadapter, they are well know to all.
The cutting side of the sword is that most people never had a really sensitive

Neat story! The other source to consider, and I suspect but can't prove is

Greetings, Flexers:
I have a microHAM microKEYER II interface sitting unused next to my MARK V.
Is anyone out there using one with their FLEX 5K?
I notice their web site lists a cable for interfacing the unit to the 5K, so
at least one person must have asked for it and tried it.

Yes, indeed, these odd signals! But I was fortunate enough to have

He then immediately said, yes, that's an MOV or insulator or maybe
both and I

Brett,
You have to be kidding.. Right? I can view a AM signal, even tell the
audio response on each sideband, exactly if I move the cursor over the
signal and read the frequency response in the lower left of the panadapter.
You can monitor your AM signal in the Flex 5000 with the RX2

Helo all,
Is there any way to control which VFO gets tuned by the mouse wheel when in
MultiRX mode?
As near as I can tell by experimenting is when in multiRX mode the mouse
wheel moves VFO A, and moves the
Panadapter display, but VFO B actually stays put and does not move.
I'm wondering if
No I am not kidding.
The Icom had a smaller display but showed more information it seemed.
Maybe something is not right with my setup, as I could not begin to tell the
bandwidth of an AM signal. It shows a sharp spike (carrier) and very little
modulation.
The waterfall display seems ok.

All I can say is you must have the display really messed up.. I would

panadapter to AVG, and then go to display tab of Setup and increase
