Skip,
I thought so. However, one respondent said that if that was done, all the low
band & 6 meter frequencies would be off, so I just had to live with it.

Make sure the RefLock board is seated all the way down in the K144 and
cabled correctly (there is a BAD diagram floating around).
Check for current Firmware, FW of BOTH the radio AND the K144XV! Older
did not support the RefLock!
Check the TMP socket(s) on the K144XVREFLOCK for shoved in
Ben,
The K144XV & Phase lock calibration steps have already been performed. The
problem arises when using an external reference oscillator.

Read the following:
1) K144XV manual pp20
2) K144XV Reference Oscillator Phase Lock Option Manual. Pp 11
Once the K3S 49MHz oscillator is calibrated, leave alone.
The LOs (plural,,,116MHz and 118MHz) are locked to the 10MHz reference (which,
depending where you are in the 2M band). If there
Hi John,
In case you are only interested in 2 meters you can and have an accurate
readout on the band
Be aware that all hf + 6m will shift as well and will no longer be accurate.

Hi Henk,
Thanks for that info. That does make me think I could adjust the offset on the
Config menu to account for the 800 Hz, no?

Hi john,
Correction of the frequency for HF/6 takes place at synthesizer/DSP level
(Elecraft has not answered my questions where exactly) and takes the frequency
deviation of the main TCXO into account. So this does not correct the TCXO
itself.
The 2 meter K144RFLK locks directly to the
Hi Mike,
Yes, the Phase Lock option is installed according to instructions from
Elecraft. But, I am 800 Hz off.

I am using an external reference to lock the K3S' frequency. The resulting
frequency is 100% accurate on the low bands and on 6 meters. However, on 2
meters, the frequency is approximately 800 Hz low.
The manual states that using an external reference will lock the frequency but
that it will
