Hi Jack and the group this is Josh, N4VB. I had the same thing (on rx only)
today.. I switched
from user 2 back to user 1, and there was no sound, nothing. The s met. was
moving and the sweep
had strong signals on it. Same on ssb on all bands. In about 5 mi. the
sound started to return, but in
waves??? In 10 to 15 mi. all was ok. I was like the squelch went wild.
DXUPON all.....
