Hi Don, Thanks for your reply.
If you have any pull with the manual writer, you might suggest they add this procedure to it. I never would have guessed, for instance, that I must set the L parameter first. H and L weren't mentioned in the procedure on page 65. And also, the first thing you see in the SIG menu is the H parameter. (the one you're NOT supposed to adjust first) By the way, I can't see it being as easy as you suggest. When in the SIG menu, I won't be able to see the S meter display. So presumably there's going to be several iterations of going in & out of the menu items.

If you have a signal generator with a 50 uV output level (like the Elecraft XG1 or XG2), you can set the indication to S-9 with that 50 uV input. The Lnn parameter must be set first. The numbers you see are the default values or the previous settings. If you still have problems understanding the sequence, please ask again. 73, Don W3FPR Joel Weder wrote: > I've been trying to figure out how the heck to use the SIG menu item in my > KX1.
