This is entirely normal behavior. I have my S-meter set to read peaks and use it to give signal reports, but I set the P3 to very heavily average what it sees. This smooths out the noise and makes it much easier to see signals. The peak to average ratio is typically between 6 and 10 dB. You can see this by temporarily turning on the peak hold function. I've assigned the peak function to one of the soft buttons. 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
