And not just for the K2. It turns out that all transmitter phase noise 
plots published in QST going back for many years include a 7.5 dB error 
in favor of the rigs. The lab has identified this error and corrected 
it, so going forward we'll see more accurate numbers.

Much of the error is traceable to a decades-old HP application note 
that, apparently, had been taken for gospel.
