Thanks Jim,
Yes, I've miss typed. Sorry if I confused anyone. Those of you that have one of those little handy elecraft generators I'm sure understood. Output is either 1uV or 50uV....there I typed it right! Anyway, I'm gonna study up on the 2nd if-audio board and see if I can figure out anything.
Later,
David

I've gone over the S-meter setup 3 times, and same result. An S-9 signal is 30 over, calibrate is about the same, 30 over. I've tried a separate signal generator at 50mv and its 30+ over (elecraft oscillator). Same 50mv signal gen used to check TR4C and its S-8, and TTec Omni VI is same.


I really hope you mean 50 uV, rather than 50 mV. The holy grail seems
to be 50 uV for S-9 these days, although I have seen some radios over
the years that were spec'd at 100 uV. The results I ended up with
seemed to be a combination of circuit changes to the 2nd IF/Audio board
and the adjustment method used. I've got my notes partly cleaned up,
I'll see if I can finish it up this evening and get it up on the web. I
got closer to 50 uV for S-9 than I could when I started...
