[Elecraft] K3 deaf when narrow filter engaged

Hi Bill - yes, RF Gain Calibration done first, and always zero beat.  I was
trying to set it up with S-meter mode Absolute, not Relative, since I am
using an XG2.  I ended up going back to relative and things are behaving
normally, but I'd love to get this Absolute mode working. Maybe my XG2 isn't
doing 50 uV properly.

Thanks,

W4ZV> 1.  Did you first do the RF Gain Calibration using the K3 Utility?
W4ZV> 2.  Are you zero beat on the signal?

NV1B>> Now the only remaining problem is getting the rig to show S9 with a
50 uV source.
