Re: [Elecraft] K3: ADC Ref calibration
Don't you hate it when your calibrated multimeter displays 5.00V on pin 2 of the ACC connector and you then don't have a reason for altering the setting? I feel like I've missed out :) - Shane K3/10: S/N 2127, KBPF3, KFL3B-FM, KFL3A-6K, KFL3A-2.8K, KFL3A-400, KTCXO3-1 KXV3. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/K3%3A-ADC-Ref-calibration-tp1658417p1661015.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Re: [Elecraft] K3: ADC Ref calibration
Just use a different (uncalibrated) DMM Then you can change the setting _twice_! matt zilmer, W6NIA On Mon, 15 Dec 2008 18:07:07 -0800 (PST), you wrote: Don't you hate it when your calibrated multimeter displays 5.00V on pin 2 of the ACC connector and you then don't have a reason for altering the setting?

Re: [Elecraft] K3: ADC Ref calibration
The multimeter *did* read 5.007 volts but I couldn't enter the additional 7mV into the K3.

Re: [Elecraft] K3: ADC Ref calibration
You have the satisfaction of knowing that your're right on the mark then. Well... at least very close. AND you've been spot on the whole time you've had the K3. Suggestion: Find somewhere else to tinker. The S-Meter is a good target. There has been some debate on that. Same with AGC adjustments. There is a lot to do here with the K3. Operating it is the best part. I think Elecraft has found us a whole new hobby, or a set of them. 73, matt, W6NIA K3 #24, K2 #2810, etc. On Mon, 15 Dec 2008 20:39:28 -0800 (PST), you wrote: The multimeter *did* read 5.007 volts but I couldn't enter the additional 7mV into the K3.

Re: [Elecraft] K3: ADC Ref calibration
I spend most of my time tinkering with the AGC-THR, AGC-SLP and RX-EQ - wish I had a dollar for every minute I've spent with the RX-EQ but that's The Other thread.
