Dave, >From my observations, if the lower order digits on the frequency display are different than xxxx.00 when you switch to 1kHz tuning steps, those undisplayed digits will stay the same as they were. - in other words, if you were tuned to 7070.35 and go to the 1 kHz tuning the steps will be to 7071.35, 7072.35 etc.
Perhaps Wayne will chime in here with the 'real' answer. I never paid a lot of attention to it and just assumed it was like I said above. 73, Don W3FPR Life is what happens when you are making other plans ----- Original Message ----- I used to notice that when I was tuning in 1Khz steps my frequency used to always end up about 30khz or 50khz higher. So from tuning say from 5050.00 to 7070.00 using the 1Khz tuning rate the fine tune frequency read at would be 7070.03 or 7070.05. Anyway, I did the recalibration of my K2 using Wayne's calibration posted on Don Wilhelm's website this avo because my dial frequency was 70hz out and I wanted to get it more accurate. I've got the calibration within 20-30khz however NOW I've noticed my 1khz tuning rate begins and ends perfectly. So tuning from 7050.00 to 7070.00 by readout now shows 7070.00. I've never seen this discussed before. I assume that if the 1khz tuning rate creates fine tune shift this must be related to a calibration problem? _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
