[Elecraft] XV144 calibration

[Don Wilhelm]

Michael,

Check the 'Firmware Requirements' section of the K60XV manual.
You must have Version 1.07 or later of the KSB2 firmware installed to
provide proper power level control when using SSB through the low-power
output.

It does sound like you have an earlier version of the KSB2 firmware.

73,
Don W3FPR
