There is a small plastic screw near the bottom of the meter, make sure that
it is adjusted to zero with the power off.

Subject: [Flexradio] S Meter minimum
Hi Matthew and Steve,
KJ4TN’s message about the S3 noise level minimum on the Flex 3K describes my
experience as well. While it varies from band to band a bit, my S Meter
never approaches zero, including when the antennas are disconnected or when
I am connected directly to the dummy load. Noise level runs around 100.
Preamps have a small effect. Sent back to the factory last year for new
preamps plus complete checkout and was given assurances every thing was A-OK
at that time. Everything else runs perfect! Using PowerSDR v2.7.2. Maybe a
calibration or adjustment issue?? Not overly concerned but curious just the
same. Thanks!
Bill, KI4B
