Yup, that's answering the question perfectly. I feel famous now,

Knut, In going over the FAQ on the Elecraft site, I found this had been added to address your question: General does not mean continuous in this case. There is a small gap at 8.215 MHz. You may be able to tune to this frequency, or not, depending on the firmware. There is a trap circuit to suppress response at this frequency, so the receiver won't work very well within several kHz of 8.215 MHz if it does allow you to tune there. 73, Joe - WB1AIU --- In Elecraft_K3@..., "ab2tc" wrote: > > With a first IF of around 8 MHz, how can the receiver be general > coverage?

Maybe it switchs the first or second IF from - to + at the critical
frequency spot. In this way it is possible to have general coverage. However for a downconverter general coverage to acchieve fair IF image rejection for all frequencies is a challange. We will see. 73, Peter - HB9PJT --- In Elecraft_K3@..., "Joe Stofko" <wb1aiu@...> wrote: the IF frequency? |

Good question. Maybe one of the gang at Elecraft will have an answer ! 73, Joe - WB1AIU --- In Elecraft_K3@..., "ab2tc" <ab2tc@...> wrote:

With a first IF of around 8 MHz, how can the receiver be general
coverage? Will there not at least be hole in the coverage around the IF frequency? 73 Knut - AB2TC |
