[1000mp] I need some info

[Dick White]

Billy,

It does not matter which of my 3 antennas I use. I get the same results with
the YAGI, vertical and my G5RV. I did find out a few minutes ago that if I
use  longer spacing between my call sign letters, it is not as bad. Very
frustrating to call R1ANB and have the receive go silent and not be able to
tell if I got a reply. I have checked all the connections on the back of the
rig. The problem is worse the past few days. I do not notice this working
RTTY in LSB, just CW.

Dick, trying swapping from ANT A to ANT B
and see if the problems also moves. Do you
hear the same using different antennas?
