Hello, Thanks to Gary of Elecraft I have been able to perform the temperature compensation procedure on my KX3, sn 18xx.However, because it is a rather time consuming process, I would appreciate advice on when the compensation is good enough for FT8 on 6 meters? My measurements indicate that the frequency drift now is approx. 50 Hz when the oscillator temperature increase from 25C to 52C. Most of the drift happens between 45C to 52C. As far as I can measure there is about 25 Hz hysteresis during cooling down from 52C to 38C (where the stand by temperature stabilize). I can make FT8 contacts, but 6 M conditions are currently marginal here, so performance is difficult to evaluate. Do I have to do the compensation one more time? 73 OZ7BQ, Hans Jørgen
