K3S Manual, Revision A, May 26, 2015, page 52, left column, half way down...
"If desired, the [TUNE] power readings can be calibrated, This must be done at 5.0 W, 50 W (K3s/100 only), and 1.00 mW. IF you read this page, you find that the procedure requires a 50-W capable dummy load (minimum), an "accurate" wattmeter, and for the "Milliwatt-meter Calibration", "an accurate RF voltmeter". ______________________ Clay Autery, KG5LKV MONTAC Enterprises (318) 518-1389 On 4/26/2016 10:47 PM, Don Wilhelm wrote: > Clay, > > I see nothing in the K3 manual about Tune PWR calibration. > There is the wattmeter calibration for which you need a good 50 ohm > dummy load and a wattmeter that you can trust. > The other is the TX Gain Calibration which needs only a good 50 ohm > dummy load. > > If those are both done, then your TUNE PWR setting will be accurate. > > 73, > Don W3FPR > > On 4/26/2016 11:15 PM, Clay Autery wrote: >> Not referring to the XMTR Gain cal... talking about the Tune PWR >> cals... >> >> > ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
