[Elecraft] K3 in AM-Sync Mode Receiving WWV

[Jim Wiley]

This problem may (or may not) be caused by selective fading, causing the 
"real" WWV carrier to disappear for a moment, whereby the K3 then locks 
up to one of the sidebands, perhaps from the 100 Hz time data, then 
returns to the main carrier when it again is strong enough.  Of course 
it may be something else entirely, but  that is one possibility. 


Disclaimer:  This opinion is worth exactly what you had to pay for it.
