I'm testing the K3 XVTR output level for use with a Kuhne 144
transverter (opt. 05) which uses a 14 MHz IF.
XV1 PWR is set to 1.5 mW as required. Checking with my spectrum
analyzer, key-down CW output power at the XVTR Out jack varies as follows:
VFO=144 MHz (14.0 MHz out) +1.3 dBm
145 (15.0) -4.8
146 (16.0) -17.5
Needless to say, the Kuhne output power varies proportionally. I also
tested with XV1 IF set to 28 MHz and power output is flat. This 14 MHz
level variation is unexpected; anyone seen this before?
