Just bought a second K3 and thought I'd check the S meter calibration. Using a XG-2, 50uv read S-7 but before going further I ran the RF gain calibration in the K3 utility. I did it four times. When I chose to "use the signal source" the calibration would conclude and the RF gain control and S meter seemed to operate normally. When I turned the rig off and then back on, the RF gain control became nearly inoperable (full CCW would move S meter only up to S-5). When I chose "use factory default" the calibration seemed to be remembered after restart and the RF gain control worked normally. I was using K3 Utility Mac version 1.4.1.8
I remember a similar situation a few years back but a newer version of the K3 utility addressed it. Is this a known problem? I didn't find any recent posts about it. 73, Gary W7TEA ----- 73, Gary W7TEA K3 #1001 -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/RF-gain-calibration-tp6778114p6778114.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ 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
