[Elecraft] K3 Sub RF gain

[Mike Scott]

I have noticed a difference in behavior of K3 main and sub receiver RF gain
behavior. 

 

Listening to a strong signal over S9 on the main Rx as I turn down the RF
gain the signal disappears around the 11:30 position. On the sub receiver
the signal is still fully copyable with the RF gain full counter clockwise.
12 O'clock on the main is like full CCW on the sub Rx. Both appear full gain
at the full CW position. I am operating in diversity at the moment on 40M
with ATT in and preamp off, I checked both Receivers show the same. I am
listening to both Rx using 2.7 KHz filters.

 

I have performed the K3 gain calibration procedure using an XG2. I am using
what I think is the latest utility version 1.3.10.15. 

Is it possible that others see this behavior and do you find it normal?
