I have just completed KX1 1804. (Can't quite justify a K3 at this point but
needed something to supplement the K2...) It's a great kit and I look
forward to using it. There is one problem at the final checking stage.
Everything seems to work as expected except I can't get the 20m output to be
less than the 40m output as described in the manual. When I first checked
(with a 12v supply) I got about 3.6watts on 20m and 3.1 on 40m. I adjusted
the turns on L2 per the manual, but that seems to reduce output on both
bands. At the most extreme 'squeeze', I got ~2.7watts on 40m and 3.1 watts
on 20.
Everything else seems correct.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
