The manual is correct if you wish to use "nor" mode for the S Meter.
If you wish to use ABS mode, then you need set PRE OFF and ATT OFF before adjusting CONFIG: SMTR SC and CONFIG:SMTR OF. In this case, with no sig gen attached, the lowest S Meter bar may flicker or be on. On both of my K3s (S/N 00002 and S/N 03036) the results are SC 14 and OF 20. If you have a sig gen, and if you haven't already done so, you should run the RF GAIN calibration procedure in K3 Utility *before* performing S Meter calibration. Details for this are in K3 Utility Help. 73, Lyle KK7P ______________________________________________________________ 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
