Folks,
Thanks all for the info, including the comprehensive list of beacons &
stuff. Yes, I will calibrate as soon as my outside shack can be warmed up to
room temperature. Difficult at the moment in sub-zero temperatures not just
from a calibration viewpoint, but from a human endurance angle.
I'm certain the problem of the two spurious signals is not a calibration
issue. All calibration will give me is a more accurate statement of where
the spurious signals are on the dial.
The birdies are:
S5 Signal at 10.170.7 - CAL OSC at 3013. Where is this coming from I wonder,
and what can I do to supress it?
S1 Signal at 21.072.7 - cal OSC at 3010. This sounds and behaves like a VFO
harmonic. 7th harmonic of 3010 is 21.070 which is dammned close considering
I am not calibrated at the moment.
I am wired up for 80KHz operation and the vfo range is 3096 to 3008. The
board is the 4 band filter wired for 7, 10.100, 14 and 21 MHz.
Regards,
Tony
