Just discovered that when I switch the antenna tuner in, the interference goes away. H'mmmm Tom W7WHY _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ T
Sounds like front end overload or some kind of mixing inside the radio. Does your tuning/matching circuit on the vertical have some narrow band characteristics that is rejecting broadcast band stuff
HI, Tom; Are you using one of the typical TEE network tuners? They are typically high pass filters (two series capacitors and a shunt inductor) and may attenuate an AM broadcast signal when tuned to
Hi Dave I actually made 2 posts, but didn't see the first one here. The first post said that I am having problems with AM broadcast interference with my 80 meter dipole that was never there before. I
