[Elecraft] VK9MT transmit audio distortion.

[peterc281]

It was disappointing to hear some of the SSB signals from VK9MT, especially
on 20 metres late Wednesday 2/4 , the transmit audio especially on that
occasion was weak and distorted.

I had similar bad Tx audio reports when I took my K3 to Norfolk Island VK3NT
which was never completely resolved, maybe it’s an earthing problem at
remote locations as I don’t have the problem at my home QTH.

It is fantastic to see Elecraft supporting DX-peditions with equipment loans
or donations but their reputation is easily tarnished if the equipment does
not perform correctly when the whole amateur population is tuned in. I hope
the engineering people at Elecraft are onto this and able to solve the
problem.

Finally, thanks to the VK9MT team who did a great job under very difficult
conditions and I hope they arrive home safe and sound.

73, Peter
