-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I also looked for a solution to the S meter calibration problem. I discussed the problem with Greg Ordy w8wwv Author of the great program called S meter light. Unfortunately the K2 does not return 8 data bits via the serial port so the calibration accuracy would be close to useless. If the K2 did return 8 data bits you could obtain 0.1 db accuracy using Gregs program. 8 data bits returned via the data port is available on the 756PRO and several other radios. Elecraft cloned the Kenwood command set which returns 4 or 5 bits or something like that.
Maybe Elecraft would consider this as a future external option for the K2 . It certainly would be a first for a ham radio, that is having a inbuilt calibrated S meter. The crunched up S meter bargraph is highly annoying and close to useless on the k2.
