Mine is set to S9 at 50 microVolt with the preamp off. S9 is normally a
standard at 50microVolt, so I think preamp should be set to off....
When I calibrate S-Hi.... at the moment the S9 led light, that's it !!
I rarely use the preamp... only on 20m and higher frequencies, 15m
,etc...

I just put the XG1 together and had a question about the setup on
the K2 for setting the S-meter to S-9. In the K2 manual, the only
mention of
the XG1 is on page 48. This is the step right after the Cal SLo and
Cal SHi
functions. It does not indicate whether to have the preamp on or not.
The
instructions that come with the XG1 say to have the preamp on. Which is
correct? I am assuming that it would be with the preamp on, since I get
around S-5 with the preamp off, and close to S-9 with the preamp on.
This is
after doing the SLo and SHi calibrations.
Also, what is considered S9 on the K2 meter? Just before the 9, or
right under the 9 ? I am not trying to be too picky, just wondering
what
point everyone else is using, if there is a standard. Right under the
9 goes
slightly past it and kind of looks like a better indication for a 5
over
condition. Right now, the XG1 set for 50 microvolts lights the bar
under the
9 on my S-meter.
