Chris,

The CAL S LO and CAL S HI values are as you observed.

Turn the RF Gain to full clockwise, and remove the antenna. Turn the preamp on. Adjust CAL S LO first so there are no bargraph LEDs illuminated. Then tune in an S-9 signal (preamp on or off, your choice), and adjust cal S HI for an S-9 indication in the bargraph. Usually that value will be between 23 and 19.

Thanks to Martin and Don.

Yep, the age setting had mysteriously advanced while in storage.

I had forgotten about the CAL submenu.  Messing with the settings got me
some more reasonable S-meter action. Apparently the S LO should be greater
than S HI in normal operation.
