I'm having a number of problems with KX1 options and I'm hoping to
get some guidance from the reflector participants.
The KX1 went together w/o a hitch. Performance matched my Elmer's old
rig and life was good. Then came the 3080 option that required
re-work. I followed the instructions and now there are problems.
* Can't Rx any signals at all. Not even WWV. But the Elecraft
signal generator can be heard on it's specific frequencies at both 50
and 1 uV.
* U6 can cook eggs on Rx!!
* I checked the DC Voltages per pages E-5 and E-6 and found:
* U1 pin 14 at 5V not 0.0
* U1 pin 15 at 5V not 0.0
* U2 pin 14 at 2.5V not 0.0
* D3 Anode a 11.7V not 9.0
* Others not checked because they are hidden by the 3080 board.
I'm open to any and all suggestions.
Thanks,
Tom (taking the test(s) later this month) Pallen
