[Elecraft] KX1 receive problem

[Joe]

HI!  I am building my KX1, and have gotten to the receiver alignment stage.
I am using an XG1 for my signal source on 40M and the 50uv S9 signal is
audible and I can get a good peak on the 40m trimmer, but it isn't as strong
as an S9 should be.  When the XG1 is in the 1uv position, I don't hear it at
all.  On 20M, I used an antenna, and I couldn't hear anything at all, but
barely heard the XG1's harmonic on 14.080 and was able to peak the trimmers,
but signal was very low.   Any suggestions??
