K3: TX Gain Calibration Summary

[Dick Dickinson]

I've just done a TX Gain Calibration.  The numbers shown TX Gain Calibration
Summary vary quite a bit.  What is the proper way to interpret them?

 

 

Best,

Dick - KA5KKT

Dick,

I think all is well, as long as the TX Gain Calibration succeeded.
What you are seeing in the summary is the gain factor for each band.
The RF Gain is not constant from one band to another, but after a
successful calibration routine, those values are used by the firmware to
compute the amount of drive needed to achieve whatever power output you
requested with the power knob.
