Many thanks to Bill, W4ZV, for providing the LVL CAL instructions in his Nov. 11 reflector message. I did the calibration using an XG-2 both before and after doing the IF output mod in my older K3.
Before the mod, my transfer gain was -21 dB, which I think should have been -18 dB because I have a 3 dB Rx antenna splitter in line with my XG-2. After the IF output mod, my transfer gain is -8.3 dB. (This time I took into account the 3 dB attenuation in my splitter by adjusting the level of the peak to -76 dBm instead of -73 dBm.) 73, Chuck NI0C K3 s/n 1061 P3 s/n 844 ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
