[Flexradio] New SDR-1K: Freq Cal Question

Another thought:   I had another problem with the calibration that was related to the RIT/XIT function:   Please refer to the forum topic and discussion:   http://www.flex-radio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=924&highlight=   I thought that this problem was programmed out with more recent versions

Hi, I have a problem quite similar from the first days. This happens randomly but I found a way to reproduce it as many times as I want, so I was able to take some measurements. I never reported it because I though it was something unique to my set since nobody had reported anything like that

I believe that I had this problem in the past.   It turned out to be related to the audio cable connections.   It was intermittent as you describe.   I would suggest that you check ADC L and ADC R levels on your meter to verify that they are within a few db. If not, you probably have a probl

The plot thickens ... I don't seem to have repeatability (upon power-up). After powering down, waiting 3 minutes, and then powering up, I am evidently out of cal again. This time, I had to enter an offset of '86' to get back on track. This offset is eerily close to my original offset of '85950

Mitch, my offset is around 3400. I wonder if you're setting to the image frequency? Mike - AA8K Mitch Easton wrote: Greetings to All, This excited newbie just joined the "family" so please pardon any/all dumb questions. My SDR is fresh out of the box, and both of us are getting settled in
