Regarding setting the reference oscillator by the zero beat method. Is the cw pitch on the k3 set to 600hz or 500hz to do this? Also, should the radio be on for a period of time to warm up before performing the calibration? I also assume it is performed using the tone on WWV that is present when one tunes in WWV at 10MHZ and then one enters CW mode. (of course with CWT turned off as I discovered). One also needs TECH MD turned on to get to the REF OSC option on the CONFIG Menu. Then turning on spot (at 600hz?) then adjusting vfo A for zero beat.
Has anyone tried calibrating by using the data sheet that comes with the txco with the k3 utility program. Is this any more or less accurate than the zerobeat method with WWV? Thanks.
