[Elecraft] KX1 RX problem

[Don Wilhelm]

Pierre,

That is a strange combination of bands to produce a problem.
My guess is that you have either a faulty relay contact or a bad solder 
connection/toroid lead in the KXAT1.   Perhaps a relay contact that 
makes contact until you pass RF through it.
You could try the last two troubleshooting steps shown on page 11 of the 
KXAT1 manual.
