You have the satisfaction of knowing that your're right on the mark
then.  Well... at least very close.  AND you've been spot on the whole
time you've had the K3.

Suggestion:  Find somewhere else to tinker.  The S-Meter is a good
target.  There has been some debate on that.  Same with AGC
adjustments.

There is a lot to do here with the K3.  Operating it is the best part.
I think Elecraft has found us a whole new hobby, or a set of them.

K3 #24, K2 #2810, etc.
