K3 S-Meter Calibration and SMTR MD abs

[Dan Atchison]

Just a quick question concerning the calibration of the K3 S-Meter and
the use of configuration SMTR MD.



I have calibrated the K3's S-Meter using the manual calibration
procedure (K3 Preamp ON).  Everything calibrates fine, but if I try to
use configuration mode, SMTR MD abs as opposed to SMTR MD nor, the
S-Meter does not show the "calibrated" results.  It shows the S-Meter
reading of the K3 when it is in a "no attenuation, no preamp"
condition.  This doesn't sound right to me.  Shouldn't SMTR MD abs show
the calibrated indication (even with the preamp off and the attenuator
enabled)?
