Evening all,

 

Was working cw ok on 40m throughout the afternoon. Everything appeared to be
ok. Sudden deafness of the receiver occurred. It is apparent on all
frequencies. Antenna is ok since sigs on spare Icom 8500 receiver with same
antenna are loud and clear. For example, I can hear radio China (?) on 7.120
at 9+30 on the Icom but only around S5 on the K3. Ham signals are almost
inaudible. Again loud and clear on the Icom

 

I have tried connecting another antenna to the Rx Ant port with no
noticeable improvement. Also, have connected an antenna to Antenna 2 - No
difference. I dumped the parameters and re-loaded them - no change.

 

RF Gain up full. CONFIG SQ MAIN set to '00'

 

ATT off

 

Any ideas please?

 

Cheers,

 

Terry
