Just throwing this out there while I start backtracking to figure it out.
I have installed the K160RX, KAT2, KBT2 and now the KSB2. Prior to install
I was able to hear activity on the bands. After install I could hear very
few stations. On the ones that I could hear, it was barely so even with
full AF gain and the SWR meter would barely deflect. This AM a friend tried
to TX on 40m at 5, 10 and 50 Watts. So it seems I have induced a deafness
problem. I have also installed the Elecraft mic with the Rbias resister and
jumpers. I was missing one jumper but used one from my computer junk box.
It was slightly different as it does not have a "top" like the ones Elecraft
provided. I include this on the off chance this might mean something to
those of you far more experienced and knowledgeable than I. I have
attempted to TX into a dummy load and I get "dot" deflections on the SWR
meter in the 5-7 range but a separate watt meter indicates well below the
set power.
Anyway, if anyone has any thoughts on tracking down this gremlin they are
certainly welcome.
Thanks & 73's,
Chris
