Title: rockbound test. 7145 Post by: VE3LYX on February 17, 2012, 02:46:15 PM Got a Dx60B this week. I think I have everything working now and would like to do an on the air test. I have only one crystal in a reasonable section of 40M 7145. This evening or tomorrow, if possible. I will be checking freq on the hour as long as I am home.

Don VE3LYx The sideband was horrendous around 7.140... I did move to 7.160 when I found it clear and called CQ and made a few AM contacts... 3 of them were on Flex 3000s and when they set their audio level with my help, they sounded excellent. (I didn't go into equalization and all that just gain level so, one was set way low and two others were set too high).

It is the only rock I have for the rig that is on the phone section of the band. I do have a old signal gen down stairs. Later I may put a plug on it and use it as a VFO. If I like it I may build one for it.
