P3 weirdness with K3/K144XV

Dick Hanson
Hello.

 

I may have missed explanations of this anomaly and its cure.

 

The issue is: the P3 follows the K3 everywhere but to 144.

On this band, the trace disappears; I think I can see it going up and off
the screen.

Can't figure this out and would appreciate help from those who may have
already been there.

 

Thanks.

73

Dick, K5AND

Hi Dick,

It sounds like MENU:XV Gain may have the wrong value.  The default is
+25 dB.  See the "Amplitude Calibration for Transverters" section of the
Owner's Manual.

If that doesn't work you might try a Parameter Initialization.
