[Elecraft] [K2] Transmit Audio Problems

[Michael Eberle]

Okay, I have gone through all the filters and adjusted them using a 
noise source and spectrogram.  The carrier showing up on PTT in USB or 
LSB has disappeared but I think this went away with installing the top 
cover.

I still have problems with the audio.  I set the dial frequency to 
14200.00 USB and transmit a 700Hz tone.  Monitoring the transmitted 
signal with my K3 and P3 this is what I see.  The expected spike at 
14200.70, another shorter spike at 14.201.40, and another small spike at 
14.202.10 -- exact multiples (harmonics) of the original 700Hz tone.  
These spikes show up on all bands but 20 is the only band I have 
actually used the P3 markers to measure.

What should I be checking for that could cause this?

Thanks,
Mike - KI0HA
