Hi all, I have been playing with the RF gain calibration procedure on my K3. I have used my XG1 as a signal source after fitting a new battery :) What I found had surprised me. If I turn down the RF gain, I cannot completely lose a signal. The RF gain will not move the s-meter about about s7. Now obviously the rig is much more quiet but it seems to me that this is incorrect. If I use the factory default settings, the RF gain acts in the way I would have expected. I am fairly confident that the XG1 is OK. That is I see s9 on several rigs for 50uV. I would appreciate your thoughts :)
