Werner, You have obtained a better than normal adjustment - normally 008 and above is considered OK. I believe there is a statement to that effect somewhere in the manual.
I would guess that the 2.4 volts is OK. That may change when you finish the power calibration. Connect R6 (47 ohms if the K60XV is not installed, or 470 ohms with the K60XV) and see what happens. 73, Don W3FPR On 11/25/2010 6:03 PM, Dr. Werner Furlan wrote: > I am in the course of finishing the KAT2 assembly. > > I did the C55 adjustment like discribed on page 16: > Press T U N E button and release it when you see the display change. > Adjust C55 for an indication as close as > possible to 0 0 0 .
