[Elecraft] RF Calibrate

[Dick Dievendorff]

You may want to consider performing the S-meter calibration procedure
described on page 51 of the owner's manual, which is distinct from the RF
Gain calibration procedure performed by the DSP firmware with an assist from
the K3 Utility.

I used the new RF Calibration feature of the K3 utility this morning.
I calibrated both main and sub receivers.

My S-meter now reads S9 at 50 uV with ATT on, PRE off. I am not sure if that
was the intended result or not. Since I normally operate this way it works
for me. I am not set up with S meter in normal mode, not absolute...
