[1000mp] Fw: Shuttle-jog position?

Sat, 22 Nov 2003 08:46:20 -0700

I'd be interested to know why a voice keyer can keep a switch from detenting
properly!  What was the actual problem?

Thanks to all ... it turned out that he did in fact have the MFJ voice keyer
connected and that was the cause!

Great Group!

  I recently purchased a FT-1000 MP Field from HRO in Atlanta and exchanged
the rig because the shuttle jog ring switch would not detent back to the
home position. HRO sent me a second rig and it has the same problem. Both
rigs were new out of the box. The problem occurs when the ring switch is
rotated CCW and the switch does not return back to it's centered position.
The frequency keeps shifting down. The problem is intermittent and is most
noticeable when operating CW, AM or RTTY. The cause appears to be the
improper position of the encoder switch. With the jog ring sitting in the
centered position the switch is off center to the right and starts tuning
down in frequency.

  If anyone has heard of this problem before and has any suggestions for a
solution I'd appreciate an email.
