Transverter Alignment Procedure Part 1

Paul-288
Reflector Members,

Instructions say :

Measure the TP2 near L1 in the upper left corner of the RF board.  This is the low-noise amplifier (LNA) bias level.  Adjust R13 for between 200 and 275 mV (250 mV nominal).



All I can get from R13 fully clockwise is 245 mV.  Will this present a problem being at the "fully clockwise" position and being under the rating that is considered the "nominal" setting?  This is an identical reading for two separate transverters.
