[Elecraft] Another method to calibrate reference oscillator in K3.

2010-04-18 Thread David Quental
Hello all,

I still get ERR TXG and at same time, because lack of external antennas,
I could not get the melthod 2 (zero-beating) on page 50 of Owner's
Manual. Is there any other method to calibrate the Reference Oscillator
using a computer ???

Any help will be welcome here, tks.

It sounds like you might be confusing TX Gain cal with Ref  
Calibration. All you need for TX gain calibration is a dummy load. Can  
you perform the TX gain cal on all bands manually? This is the manual  
procedure where you press tune on all bands.

I'm away from home now without the Owners Manual to refer to.

Hello Dick,

tks for your answer.
 It sounds like you might be confusing TX Gain cal with Ref
 Calibration. All you need for TX gain calibration is a dummy load. Can
 you perform the TX gain cal on all bands manually? This is the manual
 procedure where you press tune on all bands.
I am not confusing and performed all tests, however doing TX gain cal in
all bands manually I always get a power of 0.0 watts. I get power when
use ATU, then I see RF level that is power out. Just waiting for tips
from you and Elecraft as well.

 I'm away from home now without the Owners Manual to refer to.
Ok, no problem, it is in page 49.
