Sensitivity

[email protected]
 

Hello all.

I've just received my new BITx20 transceiver via IndiaPost.
It arrived quicker than predicted and the 'kit' is very nicely assembled.
Checked it mechanically and all is well, toroids all connected.

Reading the notes the designer mentions 'better than 0.1uV sensitivity.'
Having lashed it together on the bench it seemed a bit deaf, I checked everything was connected as per the instructions, but still the same.
Compared sensitivity with my Yaesu and that was much more sensitive.
So out with the Marconi signal generator, the Yaesu sensitivity is about 1uV and a reasonable tone heard. The BITX20 was more like 100uV to get a reasonable tone heard.
That was at 7MHz but it's the same at other frequencies.

I'm happy to do some research, but thought I had better see if anybody out there has had a low sensitivity unit?

Thanks for any assistance,

BobM0RHE
