Folks, Did the Xmtr power alignment with utility version 1.2.9.30 and firmware version 3.44. Used the BL2 balun connected directly to the Ant1 port of the K3, using only straight-through adapters and no cable. The five watt calibration ran to completion and all was well. BUT, after the calibration, I find that pressing and holding TUNE with the ATU in bypass mode now gives a swr of 1.1. Before the calibration, it always gave 1.0. I know this is a small point, since 1.1 and 1.0 are only negligibly different. But it bothers me, aesthetically.
Anyone have any idea how to fine-tune the swr reading on the K3? I recall that on the K2, you adjusted the balance to do this. But on the K3? Seems that since the K3 was aligned using the BL2 as its reference, the BL2 should show 1.0 swr. Not so? 73, Oliver Johns W6ODJ ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
