Fred,

Take a look at http://www.supercontrol.de/cat/ft847faq/page5.htm and scroll down to the section "Grounding Problems and Other Noises." I have fixed or improved several such issues by fixing internal grounds.

Sorry, I sent this to the wrong address. Brian

QRZ.COM says his manager is DJ1CW. The Go List has the same.

That address is:

Dmitri Poliakov P.O. Box 3441 49024 Osnabrueck Germany

Does anyone see why that would not be the correct route? I have a January 2006 QSO on 40CW that I'm about to send a card for.

Thanks.

73, Brian W3BW

Gentleman, Does anyone have any experience eliminating birdies on 435 when transmitting

on 145? Example, a loud birdie occurs when transmitting on 145,920, even into dummy load, appears on 435,310.
