[Elecraft] K2 Keying Weight (DOT) menu

[Guy Olinger K2AV]

Many of the K2 settings are somewhat relative, depending ultimately on
your actual component values, which are not exact, but within a
manufacturing tolerance.  Listen to your transmitted dots on a
separate RX and see if they SOUND equal.  Adjust the number if you
think dots are too long or too short.  If it SOUNDS equal, leave it
alone.

73, Guy.

Shouldn't it be in a 1:1 default setting? I am used to a 1:1 ratio, for that the menu is 1.00 setting? Right? Does anybody knows why the default setting is 1.10?
