[Elecraft] K3 Calibration and Configuration: Reference Oscillator

[Phil Hystad]

Gang,

I am in that part of the K3 calibration and configuration steps called "Reference Oscillator" in the Owner's Manual (page 50).  And, I am confused.

There is an errata sheet that says that the K3 Utility has an added TXCO calibration data entry screen but I do not find it on my running version of the K3 Utility.  I just downloaded this version of the K3 utility tonight.

Also, the errata sheet goes on to say that the calibration information entered using the K3 utility is not yet used by the K3 firmware.  Now, give this fact, does this mean, that the calibration procedure described as "Method 3" on page 50 of the owner's manual is not available to me.

If I can't use method 3 then I presume that I must rely on method 1 or 2 and since I do not have a frequency counter with the +1/-1 Hz accuracy then I would have to use method 2.  Is this true?

Thanks for the help.
