John - I would say that if it is just flickering on and off that is exactly right. It does at least show that the receiver is live and the residual noise is registering on the S-meter. Perhaps if you shorted ANT1 to ground the flickering might reduce.
Personally, if my S-meter did not flicker, I would wonder whether my receiver is working ;-) 73 de David G4DMP In a recent message, VK7JB <[email protected]> writes >BUT, when I disconnect the XG3, so nothing is connected to ANT1, the S1 bar >flickers on and off. > >I can't stop this flickering S1 without readjusting the parameters and >throwing out the rest of the calibration. ______________________________________________________________ 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
