I'm trying to calibrate the S meter on my newly finished KX1 by cheating and using a good signal generator at work during my lunch break. The KX1 manual suggests using another receiver tuned to a strong (S9+20 dB) signal as the "reference standard", and then setting the KX1 S meter to full scale (6 bars) using this same signal as a reference. What level should I set my sig gen to to generate an S9+20 dB signal level? I realize it's a relative thing, but I don't want to put too much signal into the radio and burn up the front end.
Thanks! Mike, K4GU _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.
