[Elecraft] WSPR

[Don Wilhelm]

Scott,

Which Elecraft radio are you using K2, K3, KX3?
Which mode are you using?
Are you driving the audio sufficiently?  With Elecraft gear on digital 
modes, you must ignore the "common advice" to set the power to full and 
adjust the audio level to get the desired power - that will result in 
"power creep" if attempted with Elecraft transceivers - instead set the 
audio level to the proper setting and set the power level desired with 
the power control knob.
Proper audio levels:
K2 - adjust until you see some ALC in the bargraph and then back off 
just until you see none.
K3 and KX3 - drive the ALC meter until you have 4 bars steady with the 
5th bar flickering.

73,
Don W3FPR
