Hello all,
Despite reference to the usual sources I cannot persuade my IC718 to
transmit below 1600 kHz.
I believe that operation is possible down to 300 kHz. or so but have
yet to find the recipe. All of the appropriate diodes have been
removed with the exception of D48. The machine performs well
anywhere between 1.6 and 30 MHz. Any advice would be appreciated.
On the other hand, my IC706 Mk2 can deliver a few watts at 500 kHz
and a useful watt or two at 136 kHz. Stability is more than adequate for QRSS3.
In passing, I have been following Stefan's efforts from the other
side of the earth. His dedication to the VLF cause must be an
inspiration to all.
73, Kevin ZL4MD
