I recently sold my FT-950 to finance purchase of the KXPA100 amp for my
KX3. It's a FB rig but I've discovered that it is not stable enough for
use with digi modes, especially JT9, JT65, etc. The recommended fix
from Elecraft seems to be an "Extended VFO Temperature Compensation
Procedure". In order to perform that however, I'll need a high quality
signal generator with a stabilized oscillator capable of injecting an RF
carrier at 50 MHz. I don't have one, and am writing to ask if anyone in
the club might be able to help me with that piece of equipment. This is
an unexpected problem, and I hope to get it resolved before the 13
Colonies event, as I'll be operating a lot on digi modes for that. The
FT-950 was rock solid on digi modes and I didn't expect to experience a
problem like this with the KX3, given the cost.
Tnx
