[Elecraft] 2M internal Xverter now 3.5 kc lower

[Randy Diddel]

Hi Ben,

I bought the K3s used and I am really not sure which TXCO I have. It is a fairly loaded on so maybe-when I crack the case of the 10mHz RefLock module I ordered last week, I will verify what I have. I have the 10mHz reflect module on order as of last week but I have yet to hear anything about it shipping from Elecraft.

The radio has been on all night sitting at 144.965.50 and the net was right there this morning. I followed the instructions for installation of the XVerter and the ref-lock and for over a month, the setup was working fine. This just started Monday.
