Hi to all,
I know there was a recent discussion in the forum about this birdie singing 
at the low end of the 10m band, but did not recall seeing any definitive way 
to kill it.
In my case, I want to think of the birdie living in my K2/100 as a 
substantially bigger one, a turkey (with the K2100 enabled -power >11w) at 
28.266 (USB), Signal strength S2 with the preamp enabled changes to .... an 
Ostrich (think logarithmically) of a solid S5 !!! at 28.264 when disabling 
the 100W option.

These two "birdies" of course are not covered by the background noise of the 
quiet 10m band and I am sure can/will interfere with Rx down there once it 
becomes active again.

Any thoughts or advice on how to kill/attenuate or move those guys  or do I 
have to live with them ? I can settle for a canary but please help me get 
these monstrous creatures out of there.

73 to all and enjoy the weekend,
Marinos, ki4gin
