All; I have a question about whether or not this is normal behavior and if it is, an explanation for the differences I'm perceiving will help me feel less inadequate about my knowledge here.
After following the guidelines in the K3 and P3 manuals, I've calibrated the S-Meter on the K3 and the level calibration on the P3 (using an XG3 as the signal source). I notice that regardless of what I seem to do, the S meter reads 1-2 S units higher on the K3 than on the P3 'peak envelope' display. Is something amiss, am I misinterpreting things, or is there something I should check for? I have SMTR MD nor. SMTR PK Off. (but have tried with on). The K3 S-meter displays no bars with antenna disconnected and S-2 at 1uV and S-9 at 50uV as expected. The factory default settings for the calibration values more or less 'just worked'. The transfer gain in the P3 is set to -10bBm IIRC. Comments or thoughts anyone?
