Randy, I just replied about that 'birdie' that clobbers 50.125, and I
noticed when I got in my truck, tuned to that freq, and then backed out of
the driveway and away from the house, it went away. So, something in my
house, or one of my neighbors' houses was causing it. It was the loudest by
far at my QTH, and heard on both my 706's, but not after leaving the general
area.

Subject: [TenTec] re 6N2 6m birdies
Paul,
my 6N2 has weak 6m birdies (antenna disconnected) at 50.118, 50.129.0,
50.129.8 and 50.136.
With the antenna connected, there is a strong birdie just below 50.125, the
calling
frequency, but my Icom 746pro and IC703 also have birdies there. When the
band is
open, the birdies are no problem. The 6N2 is a very cool rig and I have
worked stations
all over the USA and Canada from CA and OR using it barefoot with a 6m
Hamstick.
