Hmmm - I've done the cal quite a few times too - I still get reports
I'm off freq. - the last cal was done by a knowledgeable friend, using
a 5MHz ref source (Racal crystal with oven), closely coupled to ANT1
input and we got the beat to about 2 seconds (a peak every 2 secs or
so) - I still get reports I'm off freq. - I thought this was me.
will watch this thread with interest.
Any UK K3 owners who 'know' they are well on like to have a sched?

I have the K3 put together, went well, but I am having a problem. I
did the reference oscillator calibration using an Agilent frequency
counter with a GPS reference (I use this setup to set my 100Mhz
reference on 6GHz digital microwave equipment). I was testing
tonight with my friend and he was having trouble hearing me, stating
I was off frequency on TX. Our dials matched for me to hear him
fine, and he never had issues when I had the K2 running, our dials
matched. I checked my TX on my IFR1900 and found I was low in freq
by 900 Hz. XIT is off. Filters are FM in FL1, AM in FL2, 2.7 in
FL3, and 500Hz in FL4. Data was entered from the crystal filters
properly (I think, looks fine). Where should I look to find the
trouble? I'm stuck on AM right now since it is more forgiving
frequency wise.
