Mike,
I am using it with 2 loops, which are mounted at a 90 degree angle with
respect to eachother. This allows me to switch direction, which is most
pronounced on 160m and medium wave. The loops themselves are square rather
than round (as recommended by LZ1AQ) due to mechanical constraints,

The N1MM+ install is pretty straightforward, and usually goes pretty

I have calibrated the S-Meter on HF but on 2-meters (via the internal
transverter) the S-Meters reads high.
I have looked through the manual and the menu settings and I'm unable to locate

Can someone point me to the correct place.
Thank you
We bought a short lo-band E-field whip with pre-amp from Clifton Labs a few
months ago, and two circular antennas a few weeks ago.
All are well-built and the whip has performed well; it feeds the VE7AB RBN
node.
The circular antennas are still being tested.

Decided to try the latest beta P3 firmware. All loaded including FPGA.
SVGA output is frozen and P3 is updating very slowly.
When I turn the SVGA display enable off the P3 behaves normally with a
proper update rate.
I've removed power from the P3 completely and restarted it with no
improvement.
This morning I noticed something strange with #3539. On 80 160, tune only put
out 10W. The level is set for 44W. Full output is 44W, power set to 100W. SWR
with the AT in bypass is 1.3 on 80M, 1.2 on 160M. All this on ANT1. Power out
on 40M up is as expected.
I connected a dummy load to
I did a poor job on describing the noise level jump. If I switch to ANT2, the

Yes, I noticed the Step Span on mine seemed to reset after a power
cycle. It also appears to be set on a per band basis. Is there is a
way to set the REF LVL on a per band basis as well?

I have noticed that the Span Step function (which I like) is not sticky - in
that every time I recycle my radio the feature, if set, is lost. That means I
have to go into the menu and reset it. Surely it would be better if the feature
was sticky like the other features??
What do you think PaulS
Yes, it always helps to read the manual! Even for the coffeemaker -

The display is completely dead--no segments. I also see I erred in

Don't know how I missed that but it makes sense as the receiver is dead.

Andy Mike,
The Step Span in not remembered through a power cycle on my P3.
I have different REF LVL adjustments for each band on my P3 and they stay
that way through band changes and through power cycles.
I power my P3 from the K3 and I do not use the P3 power button. Could that
be a factor
I could not use the latest beta either. I had to go one beta back.

Thanks, Jim, that's opened out the discussion very well for me. I am not
able to determine how bad this makes the performance, since the output is
floating and I think hardly susceptible to common mode problems. I'm in the
market for such antennas but most are outside my budget. I would like
