I had a quick play with SatPc and the IC705. You can select the correct mode while transmitting. IE: press the ptt touch the mode on the 705 screen and select the desired mode (USB LSB FM Data ECT). It seems to remember that selection. This is of cause in split mode.

I have seen this issue at night with Xiegu and Icom rigs and my EFHW antennas. Oddly, my KX3 is immune to it. Maybe its because of the internal tuner. I’m in the Chicago area with several clearchannel AM stations. My 6BTV has no issue on any of the rigs. I’m thinking the EFHW transformer behaves like a MW loading coil.
@vk4kws Жыл бұрын
Yes it only started when I installed the commercial efhw. My home brew didn't suffer from the AM station either. I have added a high pass filter at the back of the radio so I don't hear that AM station at all. I have a solar charged backup battery system which also charged from the gird if solar input was low. I found the AC side to be very noisy. I have it disabled now and got rid of s3 noise aswell. In the last few weeks I've install a Loop On Ground rx antenna and so far I love it. My local club has a net on 80m with a regular portable foundation station (10w 1000+km) calling in and he is usual difficult to hear unless conditions are really good. So far he's been Q5 S1 each net since I installed the LOG.

You also need a high pass filter to block out the AM broadcast band. That nearby transmitter will cause birdies all over your receiver. I'm Fairly close to Nashville's 650 AM here in the states and I have an FTDX101, and believe me that a broadcast band filter is needed, I also use a common mode choke with the EFHW but for other reasons, it helps reduce the RF on the feedline from the EFHW's transformer. Think of a common mode choke as a resistor that only works at RF and is connected only to the shield of the coax, because that's where the 'common' or 'ground' currents are. The reason why it helps with the nearby AM station is that the shielding of your coax is acting as an antenna. The choke helps prevent that. Also, have you grounded the shield of your coax at the service entrance to your shack? That helps too. I know the video is old, but I thought if you've not done these things yet you could and it'd improve your ham life. At any rate, if we've not worked one another I hope to soon! 73's KY4CT
