I just went thru the alignment of my Conar 500 receiver. First, I am wondering
which is correct, low side or high side injection...I aligned to the high side.
Works as well as to be expected on 80 and 40m. However, on 15m, I am getting
some 20 meter CW feed thru up around 21240kc (as read on the rcvr dial) and 20m
SSB sigs above 21.5mc on the dial. I can also copy 15mc WWV at 21340kc on rcvr
dial. I do hear some 15m sigs as well...CW sigs are in the area of the dial as expected.
I would expect some images or feed thru from IF related frequencies, but what
would be the reason for getting the 20m sigs. I may be missing some sort of a
mixing scheme here.
Ideas...suggestions appreciated....tnx, Bill K4JYS
