[K3] 2 meter module

William Lagerberg

Hi there group,

I am all ready member of the KX3 yahoo group, but regarding the fact that i do have also a K3, i became member here to.

I do have 2 small questions:

1) is about the fact that on 2 meters you can dial within a 5 10 12,5 etc ( don't remember how you call it) but my problem is that several times that when i go to dial over the band in fm with 12,5 it doesn’t start at for instance 145.000 and then go little steps 12,5 up.
No it does for instance when i switch it on 144.995 it is going to make steps from there and goos 12,5 up zo 145.0025 etc that is not handy :-))

2) and perhaps it is related, it seems that my frequency is 5 kHz of the right frequency ( i only tested receiving by the way) what is the best way to check and, i am pretty sure it is, how can i fix it…
