Hi everyone,

Lyle reminded me that the K3's built-in  AF voltmeter display can be 
used as a reliable indicator of audio amplitude - it is a true RMS 
reading indication.  He also indicated that a steady carrier can easily 
be used rather than the wideband noise source.  If you use an on-the-air 
signal, be careful not to confuse amplitude changes caused by the filter 
with QSB on the signal.  A QRP transmitter feeding a dummy load would 
probably serve as a steady source of carrier if you do not have a signal 
generator available.

There are several ways to do a relative gain evaluation, and I mentioned 
only the way I am more used to using - I just didn't think of the others 
initially.
