K2 4MHz Adjust...

[EB1TR]

Hello to all, this week (my last hollidays week) I thought it would be a good idea to adjust the oscillator 4MHz my K2.

I performed the steps as it is described in several ways but the result is always the same.

40 meters LSB 200Hz shift
40 meters USB 1.5KHz shit

In other bands the results are always similar. Any ideas?

I suggest you use the N6KR method to set the 4 MHz reference
oscillator.  Refer to my website www.w3fpr.com article on K2 Dial
Calibration.  Note that the actual frequency may not be at 4 MHz.

You may use any AM station that has a known carrier frequency rather
than WWV.  If you use a standard station that transmits only a carrier,
you will still have to use SSB mode, but switch to CW to adjust the
pitch equal to your sidetone pitch.
