[Collins] KWM2A receive alignment - USB/LSB

[Steve Garwood]

I have noticed that the receive audio on my RE KWM2A is noticeably different
between USB and LSB.  LSB has fuller audio, USB is sharper.  In reading
through the alignment procedures, I'm not too clear on where I should be
looking to correct this.  I have to admit I have more experience with the
Drake tube receivers in adjusting the carrier oscillator (C130) so that
there is little difference when switching back and forth between USB and
LSB.

 

There doesn't appear to be anything as simple as this in what I have been
reading.

 

I'm assuming that the KWM2A alignment procedure ultimately covers this, but
is there a simpler way to accomplish this?  I'd rather not dig into it until
I know more about it.

 

Thanks for any information..
