KX1 Uncalibrated S meter - only showing one LED bar - normal?

[Martin Gillen]

Hi.

I have not yet calibrated my S meter but I noticed
that
when I tune in a really strong 40m CW morse signal
that
the S meter is only showing 1 intermittant bar, same
as for weak signals.

I even have this one intermittent bar when there are
no signals present.

I'm wondering if there's a problem with the AGC, or is
it normal?

I'm using about 10m or wire as the antenna.

Thanks,
Martin.
