Well I finally got some extra time tonight to work on my K1 receive
issue.  The thing receives on 3 out of 4 bands....20m was dead.

Tom Hammond sent me some excellent down and dirty signal tracing
instructions.  They were a big help.

Anyway...it boiled down to me pulling the crystal, putting down a
piece of tape, and reinstalling the crystal.  Now it works very FB.

So now on to the next steps...the transmitter!

Thanks to everyone that sent me encouragement and instruction.  I'm
also doing the Elmer 101 class with the SWL+ 20 so I am learning more
as I go along.

I even built my first RF probe tonight.  Hard to imagine I have
muddled through for the last three years with out one. Jeeesh.
