Jim,

The K1 actually counts the VFO frequency, so if you have calibrated the CAL OPF frequency to the ARRL broadcasts, you should be good for that entire band. The unfortunate part is that the ARRL broadcasts may not be exactly on the published frequencies, so do a double check several days running to be certain things are 'constant'.

Thanks for the responses. Now that I know it is a very weak signal I'm
listening for, I've listened more closely and I do hear a tone just  below the
band edges. (These old ears don't work like they used to). It  seems there
are too many variables to use this as an accurate signal to align  the K1.
Until I can connect with someone who has an accurate signal source, I've
aligned the K1 using ARRL code practice broadcasts. As long as I stay  well
away from the bottom of the band edges, I should be  okay? Comments?
