Hi Paul - I had the same problem last summer. It was intermittent at first
,then all the time. After the calls to Ten-Tec and the usual discussions of
RF and proper grounding, I returned the rig and they replaced the RF board
(#81889?). The JUP has worked flawlessly ever since!! 73 all - Lee K2BLC

Subject: [TenTec] Jupiter Distorted RX and TX
Hello TT Fans:
I have a question and I know someone here has the answer!
I inherited a Jupiter from my father who only used it for SWLing. He
purchased it from TT early last Fall. I have noticed that it has distortion
on RX and TX on 30m and below. I have tried updating firmware and grounding
and it makes no difference. It really sounds like I am not able to tune in
the signal on cw or ssb to clarify it. On TX I have received reports that it
sounds "raspy" and I can hear it with the cans on.
I want to send it back to TT for installation of the internal tuner and have
them fix the problem while it is there. Any info would be appreciated and I
will pass it along in the description of the problem.
Thanks!
Paul
