I must have missed something. I don't see any requirement for a sig gen in the rf gain calibration procedure instead, I read it as being an automatic procedure in the K3 utility that only requires a suitable load or termination. Where is the procedure that involves a sig gen other than the S-meter calibration that follows the rf gain calibration in the owner's manual (pg. 51)?
I'm new to Elecraft, just built my K3 and P3 and am getting acquainted with them. 73, Gary N6LRV -----Original Message----- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Don Wilhelm Sent: Tuesday, October 26, 2010 8:26 AM To: Stan Gibbs Cc: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 Rf gain tracking (main vs. sub) Have you done as has been recommended several times during this thread? - use the latest K3 Utility and run the RF Gain Calibration. First do the "set to defaults", and then run the calibration with a signal generator having a controlled output level. Follow the instructions and be certain to tune the K3 exactly to the generators frequency (use CWT if necessary). Several have commented that this step has corrected their problem. 73, Don W3FPR ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
