KX-1 S Meter

[Howard W. Ashcraft]

My KX-1 works like a charm, except... The S-Meter does not read accurately and does not calibrate.  If I set it to no induction when there is no signal, then I get little or no indication with a signal.  If I set it for a s-9 signal (using an injected S-9 signal) to peak the meter, then it reads several bars when there is no activity.  It doesn't affect operations, but it is annoying.  Is this normal?  Do others have this experience?  Any thought why this might react this way?
 
Thanks,

Howard,

The S-meter's accuracy could be improved. This is on my list for a
future firmware upgrade, although I can't put a date on it.
