Are you seeing the 800Hz error in both band segments (144 and 146)?

Looking at the schematics, there is an adjustment for each LO, but this must be 
a factory adjustment as there is no mention of them in manuals.  

Good to contact support.  All would be interested in the resolution.

External Reference

Ben,

The K144XV & Phase lock calibration steps have already been performed.  The 
problem arises when using an external reference oscillator.  

Elecraft support emailed.

Thanks,

Once the K3S 49MHz oscillator is calibrated, leave alone.
 
The LOs (plural,,,116MHz and 118MHz) are locked to the 10MHz reference (which, 
depending where you are in the 2M band).  If there is no 10MHz reference 
applied, keeping the desired accuracy may be impossible over a range of 
temperature.
 
You should be able to attain +- 10Hx accuracy according to the K144XV manuals.  
If the 800Hz error cannot be corrected by the procedure outlined, I suggest 
contact Elecraft support.
