[Elecraft] Re: Odd condition on 20 meters w/k2100/kat100

[jferg977 at aol.com]

I have what seems to me to be a strange condition with my k2100 and 
kat100.  I have an Antenna on ANT1 and nothing on ANT2 on the KAT100.  
On 20 meters only, receiving phone USB, say 14300, if I switch from 
Antenna 1 to Antenna 2, there is no discernable difference in 
sensitivity or volume.  This happens on no-other band where if I switch 
I go from something to nothing.  And I do get reasonable sensitivity on 
20 although I suppose it could be better.

The reception on 20 meters does seem a bit attenuated compared to other 
bands.  I have to use pre-amp to get a comfortable sound level. Can 
anyone else replicate this condition, or does anyone have an idea where 
I might look to chase this down?
