[Skimmertalk] image rejection

[Mark n2qt]

Today my 6M Softrock skimmer starting spotting stations at their image 
frequency.  I noticed the
I/Q balance had lost it's original smooth curve and now had a lot of 
scattered results.  I cleared
the results and as learning re-occurred the images went away.

Images were occurring whenever the receive signal strength exceeded about 38 
db snr.

I normally leave the learning mode enabled but now I think that might be a 
mistake once a good
learning curve has been established.  (as mentioned the best way to get a 
curve quickly is sweeping
a fairly loud signal generator across the band.)
