[Elecraft] P3 deaf ??

[Jim Balls]

Hi all,

Used the P3 for the first time last weekend during the BARTG RTTY contest.

I did notice that all signal levels shown by the P3 were very low, for instance with a noise level of around s3 on the K3  and a RTTY signal in the clear at S5-6 there was no trace on the P3 on either the waterfall or scope. Signals that are peaking S9 +20 on the radio with no preamp are around –91dbm (S6) on the P3.

I’ve checked cables etc and K3 had the IF output mod done.

Any ideas as I see people saying you can see signals on the waterfall sometimes before you can hear them, not so the case here.

Thanks

Jim
