I am noticing a receive loss of around 10-12 dB. I have checked Antenna B and receive antenna inputs. They are the same. What I do notice is around 2-4 s units difference in indicated signal strength

Hi Chris As someone who zapped an FT1kmpMK5 about a year ago, I think it's easier than you think. I hope you were using bandpass filters on this rig. It's a common mistake I think to not use them in

Since the ARRL has the new "F" class (operating from an EOC) we have been operating from our EOC where the antennas for the 2 rigs we use are within about 40ft, and at the same height. Testing shows

Thanks Mike. We had plenty of separation and bandpass filters. The suspicion is that the radio hasn't been smoked as a result of the contest, but there is definitely a receive fault. I am trying to d

I maybe way off but I think someone posted this type of problem a while back and it turned out to be a defective Inrad roofing filter. Roofing filter was removed and things returned to normal. Any ch

There is a suggestion that my low RF gain could be a fault in the roofing filter. With the IF gain set at 13, I bypassed the filter, ie left it in position but put the coax leads back to their origin

Over the years, I've had several of the small coils in both the LP/HP and bandpass filters go bad...I'm sure due to excess RF. They seem pretty fragile. Since I started using RX limiters in the RX li

Thanks Ty. Well the problem does seem to be further along. I have determined that the sub-rx is mores sensitive than the main rx but several s-units, so the fault looks to be in the main rx IF chain.

Is it frequency dependent? A good check is find the points where it rolls over to the next bandpass filter and see if the sensitivity drop appreciably. All my problems have been confined to the HPF a
