[Elecraft] 30 meter S-meter reading

[Mike Harris]

G'day,

<snip>
I recalibrated my S-meter and now the constant 2 bar reading on 30m
is not present any longer. This is probably the 3rd or 4th time that I 
have
had to recalibrate the S-meter in the 2 1/2 years since I built my K2. Has
anyone else had to recalibrate their S-meter occasionally? Is something 
(AGC
voltage) changing in the circuitry to cause this, and is it something I 
need
to be concerned about?

I have noticed that if the RF Gain on my K2 #1400 is left fully CW for a 
long period eventually I get a couple of bars showing.  A couple of 
rotations of the RF Gain clears the bars.

Regards,
