[600MRG] Mystery FT8 possibly solved...

[Neil Klagge]

Hey guys, Roger figured it out. It is a glitch in my rx-upconverter system. My radio is at 10,136.0 kHz and wa7lnw was at AF 2133 hz. Somehow his 30m signal got thru my 7-pole Cheby low pass filter (510 kHz) and ran thru the converter along with the 2200m wspr signals that I was decoding. I also noticed that my wsjtx was recording  wa7lnw as a 630m signal.

Sorry to stir everyone up about this. Now I need to figure out how to eliminate the blow-thru of the 30m signals when I want to monitor 2200m with this converter.

.....as you were, gentlement....
