Jean-Francois,

You certainly could do that - it should not alter any other function that I
am aware of.  The current display can be trimmed by changing Control Board
R7.

R10 and R7 are 1% resistors, and that provides repeaability from one K2 to
another - one could hand-pick from 5% resistors just as well.
I personally would be concerned about leaving a trimmeer in place because of
the possibility of the setting being changed, but certainly using a trimmer
to determine the exact value required would be an easy method.

73,
Don W3FPR
