[Elecraft] [KX2] WSJT-X & Win10 Volume Mixer

[Charles]

Hi Jim, The power output is set to 5W on my KX2. The heat sink is getting warm so those 5W are going somewhere! It’s raining here in Upstate NY where I’m traveling otherwise I’d try operating outside from the AX1. I also have 20m and 40m HAMsticks to try elevated on a short mask when it’s dry.

Best regards,

Bret

What is the power level set at? The level controls and alc adjustments set the modulation level, but in an Elecraft rig the power out is set by the power control.
The other possibility is that the stations you are printing are running much more power than you are and/or may have a higher noise level than you are experiencing.

I'll add that, with Win10 volume mixer sliders set at 50%, WSJT-X slider set
to 50%, MIC GAIN is at 3-4 to get 4 bars with 5th flashing. Running Win10
volume mixer slider to 100% does not allow 4-5 bars on the KX2 TX even with
MIC GAIN on 1 and WSJT-X slider near zero.
