I thought I found _all_ the problems with my KX3080, but I guess not. THe
receiver is now very insensitive on all bands. It works, but I don't hear an
increase in noise on any band when I connect an antenna. Tracing from the
antenna jack toward the mixer, I get a good increase in noise when I touch
the antenna to the junction of L6 and the RF gain pot. On the antenna side of
L6, there's no increase in noise.
Rereading the assembly instructions, the manual says to connect A on the
KXB3080 to B on the KX1, and B on the KXB3080 to A on the KX1, because the
markings for A and B on the KX1 are incorrect. But if this is the case, why
was the KXB30 connected A to A and B to B?
I'm wondering if this is my problem...
