Joel,
Yes, it does take several trial integrations to find out what number works.

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.

Joel,
You first must set the 'DISPLAY' to the S-meter mode - then:
The Lnn parameter is set for no bars with no signal (antenna
disconnected), and the Hn parameter is set to adjust the high level end.
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.

I've been trying to figure out how the heck to use the SIG menu item in my
KX1. There's virtually no description of how to set it up, other than the
cryptic notes in the Menu Functions section on page 65. Can anyone explain
what the parameters (eg) H5 and L84 are supposed to mean, and exactly what
procedure should be used to set the S-meter?
