[Elecraft] K144XV spurious in receiver

[Robert P. Ward]

Hi group

 

                I've just installed a K144XV in my K3 and using 2.77
firmware.

I have found some spurious response at the bottom end of the band (144.0 to
144.010). 

Wondering if anyone else has noticed this?

                Also have found the "S" meter is very inaccurate, reads 20
over S9 with -70 dBm input signal. 

I've found the K144XV to be quite sensitive as measured with a HP 8640B
signal generator......
