[Elecraft] W1 and QRN

[Chris Craig]

Jon,

I can't help you much other than the fact that mine does not do this.

My setup is the same as yours.

K1-- about 18 inches of cable --- W1  --- 18 inches of cable--- ant. tuner.

I replaced the W1 with a coupler and no change. Try swapping out cables or a coupler as previously posted. I can't see any reason the the W1 would pick up white noise on or off.

Note: I only checked my on 40 meters.

HTH, Chris, KE6GS /XE3
