TJ- Also, The "best" method is to insure you have at least rev 4.42 firmware in your K3, and let it handle the setting automatically. From the release notes for 4.42: New Features: . 2-METER FREQUENCY LOCKING TO REF CAL & EXT. REF:
The K144XV RFLK option locks the K3's 2-meter module to the rig's master reference. Previously, users of this option had to enter offsets in the CONFIG:XVn OFS menu entry based on how far off the master reference was from 49380.000 kHz. These offsets can now be calculated automatically based on the REF CAL menu entry. If a K3EXREF module is also installed, then REF CAL itself is automatically calibrated based on an external 10-MHz reference (see K3EXREF on 2 m, below). To enable this, locate XVn OFS in the menu, then tap '0' until you see "REFLOCK". This lets the K3 firmware know that the RFLK module is installed. (If the RFLK option is not installed, then the K144XV's oscillators are not locked to the K3's master reference. The offsets should then be set according to the label on the transverter module.) To see the automatically calculated offset value in the XVn OFS menu entry, the K3 should be switched to the 2-meter band. Otherwise, the K144XV offset parameter may be initially displayed as "-0.00". 73, Bruce, N1RX ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
