[Elecraft] Problems with K144XV Transverter for K3S - Can't Hear Anything

[stengrevics]

I have installed the transverter and phase lock option, and have enabled it
successfully (per the instructions).  I have an antenna whose SWR measures
less than 1.2 across the band (confirmed with antenna analyzer).  However, I
can't hear anything on 2 meters.  This was confirmed when I asked a ham
located 5 miles away to meet me on 2 meters - nothing heard.

This leads me to think that the problem is somewhere in the internal TMP
coax connections to the K144XV or to the phase lock option.

I have to say that the instructions for installing the K144XV cables were
totally screwed up and I needed tech support to send me a picture of how
they should go (which bore no resemblance to the instructions).  I still
have no confidence that I have these correctly installed.

I would appreciate any suggestions from anyone who may have experienced
similar problems.

Thanks,

John  WA1EAZ
