[Elecraft] KX3-2M CW Drift

2014-08-17 Thread Chris Johnson

I strongly recommend doing the temperature compensation. On 6 meters this will leave you something like just +/- 3 Hz of hunting. 73, Wayne N6KR On Aug 17, 2014, at 9:32 AM, Brian Hemmis bhem...@mac.com wrote: Mine drifts like crazy on 6 meters but I haven’t done the temp. comp. Will that
