I calibrated the KXFL3 (using my XG3) last night and all went well (quite the involved procedure but instructions are without fault). I did some listening Monday with the internal speaker and that takes some adjustment from what I hear using my K3 (10-inch National speaker from the 1950's). Not a fair comparison. I will probably either use headphones or ext speaker most of the time. I connected my computer (H/K) speakers and less harsh sound.
Getting acquainted with the little radio with manual open. Listened to a net on 14.290 this morning. Haven't tested the radio with meters, yet. I got to scoot up the tower before it rains again to fix my TR line for my 222 and 432 antennas. Interesting way the filters switch. Passband tuning is a bit different. I had an initial antenna issue which looked like a bad cable on the BNC but turned out a bad exterior coax. Auto-tuning looks like it is working. Next it to pre-program the memories for my favorites (will try copying my K3 list). Thanks for making the cutest ham radio! I got lots of folks looking forward to my Hamfest demo 14July. Over the 4th I will begin looking at SDR I/F control & wiring. 73, Ed - KL7UW, WD2XSH/45 ====================================== BP40IQ 500 KHz - 10-GHz www.kl7uw.com EME: 50-1.1kw?, 144-1.4kw, 432-QRT, 1296-?, 3400-?
