Using Cal Fil on K2/100

Tom Field
I have been re-aligning my K2 after finishing the K2 100 options.  Dial
calibration and PLL have gone without problem. I'm able to set the LSB/USB
filters using Cal FIL.  When I'm trying to use CAL fil to set the CW
filters acct N0SS's notes, I can't move the pass band down so the filter is
set over the 600 hz line. the BFO "jumps" and then starts over again.  Any
Idea what the problem is?

Tom,

Are the BFO "jumps" more than 20 Hz per 'jump'?  The DAC value limit for
the BFO is approximately 20 Hz, so that level of granularity is to be
expected.  If you are experiencing jumps greater than 20 Hz, you have a
problem somewhere.  Perhaps I can help you localize it off-reflector,
but I need more information to be of assistance.
