turned up... {'-)

50 microvolts is S-9, not 20 over, in the Elecraft world :)
I'll agree with Rob on 1 uV = about S3, though.

Tom,
Interesting! I've got the XG2 and a R-4C. I was told by Rob
Sherwood (of Sherwood engineering) that at 1 micro-volt, the meter
should be at S-3 and 20 over when set to 50 micro-volts. Since my rig
was nowhere near that and I couldn't seem to make it any better when
adjusting it, I packed it up and sent it to Rob to play with. It
could also be that my XG2 has some sort of problem too! Guess I
should have sent it along for testing! We'll see!
Also, just wondering what kind of S-meter readings you were
getting at the different XG2 settings from the two rigs.

Good morning.
I finished building an XG2 last evening and used my Drake R7 and
Orion II as the
test beds for the XG2.
Results: The R7 receives the 1 micro volt signals on all three
bands better
than the Orion II (less RX noise and clearer tone). I did not do
the SN
calculations scientifically, but to my ear the R7 was the better RX.
The R7 will be 30 years old next spring and has not been aligned
since the 80s.
I look forward to receiving my K3 in late January 2008.
