Hi All, I just want to follow up on my Sub Rcvr S-Meter issue. I sent a email to K3support at elecraft.com. I got a response from Gary Surrency within an hour. He suggested I re-run the Calibrate RF Gain procedure in the K3 Utility. Using my trusty XG-1 and the K3 Utility both receiver S-Meters were calibrated within a few minutes. Fast and easy fix!
As always, Elecraft support is quick to respond. Outstanding service and support. Thanks again Gary!
