[Elecraft] Questions about the sensitivity of the KX2

[tomb18]

Hi, I must confess that although I have interfaced my KX2 to my software I haven't really had a chance to use it as a pure radio, unattached to the computer. One reason was a lack of accessible antennas and time. Today however I received my MFJ 20m whip antenna and was playing around a bit tonight. Now I know it's not meant for 160m or 80 or 40, but shouldn't I hear something?  I mean even tuning to strong am bands, would I not hear these signals?Is this normal? Thanks for any advice.73 Tom va2fsq.com
