K2/100 # 2462, with all options except DSP.
I've noticed just recently that when turning the Power above 10 W (and
hearing the relays click), the receiver gain drops 20 or 30 dB. The
receiver returns to normal sensitivity when the Power knob is returned
to a lower setting.
This must have starting happening only recently. The rig is working
fine on transmit at all power levels.
Looking at the schematic, I suspect the the first place to look will be
the T-R switch in the KPA100, but I thought I would post to the list to
see if this is a well-known problem.
Thanks!
