Re: [Flexradio] Calibration: Is this a bug in 1.4.5.18?

Ahti,

It looks like the 10dB attenuator on the RFE board may not be working
properly in the calibration.  I'll have to try the calibration here to
see if I get similar results.

I had a similar problem. Very difficult to calibrate the receiver. It 
would not calibrate at all on 14.200. I finally manage to calibrate it 
on 7 MHz. It seemed to try to use the noise level as the source. 
Consequently the noise level would be at -70 dbm, or -80 dbm depending 
on what the preamp was set at and the signal 73 dbm above that.

18  with -70 dBm signal gives me following signal levels on the
Spectrum display with different preamp gains:

If I transfer the mdb-file from the version 1.4.5.16, all gain
