I found the XG2 manual and the K2 manual a bit ambiguous on the
issue of weather to do CAL S-Lo and S-Hi with the preamp on
or off.
I guess that it's a bit of YMMV but I've found if I set the S meter
with the preamp on, then I get no background signal above 20m.
OTOH, If I do it with the preamp off, then the S meter seems too
"hot" below 30m. I suppose that is a hint not to run the preamp
below 30m?
Help?
