HI Don and the Group
I have recently got Larry¡¯s LP100 digital wattmeter (factory calibrated).
I therefore used it to re-do the power calibration of KAT2 with K2. I did
it according to the manual by adjusting R1 to get a matched reading between
K2 and LP100. The K2 was set at 7100khz.
However, I noted the following:
For 17, 15, 12, 10m ¨C the power output reading in K2 is higher than that
of LP100;
For 80, 160m ¨C the power output reading in K2 is lower than that of LP100
Is this a normal observation ????
I also take this chance to realign the output power of my K2 especially the
10m band. Gary¡¯s advice in the email resource page does really work. I
got higher output on 10m by expanding or / and compressing L21 & L22 and
T2. I also did the same for T1 and got slightly power after the previous
step.
