I understand that when using the K3EXREF there is no need for this data.
But, what I was wondering is if this would be a method by which an end user
of the KTCXO3-1, (or Elecraft internally) could use this or a similar method
to compile this 1 degree increment data easily? It could be used when not
running with the external ref online, or could be included as test data from
Elecraft with a KTCXO3-1 purchase.
I am also interested in the K144XV's PLL being corrected by the K3EXREF, and
hopefully, an automated correction instead of the 116MHz/118MHz manual
calculation and data entry now required when using the K144RFLCK.
