K3: RF Gain calibrarion

Ken817821
Level 3.63 FW rev 5
XG2 7040 signal.
I get center of 7040.33 to match the spot pitch of 500 cycles.
Is this normal?

Re: K3: RF Gain calibrarion

Guy, K2AV
On the XG-x units, the LEVEL is intended to be fairly precise, the
actual frequency will vary in a minor fashion according to the actual
crystal.  The XG's aren't intended to be a frequency standard.

73, Guy.

I don't have an XG2 yet (I put it on my XYL's Christmas shopping list I handed her yesterday tho) but I suspect that that frequency isn't out of line (or spec).
