Tom, For the most part, the answer is yes, but there is no harm in doing the TX Gain Calibration using the K3 Utility procedure,, it is easy, and if you have a signal generator with a 50 uV output, do the RX gain calibration too. If you have the means, do the wattmeter calibration first, and check the CAL REF by receiving WWV on the highest frequency that you can hear it.
What I am saying is that the calibration for the K3 is not difficult, so just walk through it occasionally as a 'sanity check' 73, Don W3FPR On 8/29/2010 9:13 AM, Tommy Alderman wrote: > I'm an ex-electronics engineer, so I know not to 'assume'! > > My K3 was factory assembled/tested and has been working fine.
