I don't think so. But the calibration is not valid. Dick

This will be corrected in subsequent versions of the K3 Owner's Manual."

Is this not necessary due to the low power level? Wouldn't a specific impedance be necessary to accuratly calibrate? I'm not using a trasverter right now, but have run the calibration and would like to know the correct way of presenting a load if needed.
