[Elecraft] Problem with Elecraft's built in 2 meter receiver

[N5GE]

Mr. Royster et al,

I hope other readers of this topic will not be influenced by your ill founded
post, because you are accusing Elecraft of having a poor product, when those of
us who use the internal 2m modules know it is not true.  

You are entitled to your opinion, but there is no solution to be found.  The
product is a good one.  Did you ask them to replace the module for you?  I'm
sure they will do it at no charge.

Having had a K3 with the internal 2m module since the first month they shipped
the modules, I have never experienced, nor have I heard of anyone saying they
were having the trouble you describe, except you.

I read your first post about your "Problem", and at the time I suspected you had
never used a transceiver with a VFO on 2m FM and don't know how tune an FM
signal with a VFO.  That is still my opinion.
