[Elecraft] RF gain calibration

[Gary, W7TEA]

Just bought a second K3 and thought I'd check the S meter calibration.  Using
a XG-2, 50uv read S-7 but before going further I ran the RF gain calibration
in the K3 utility. I did it four times.  When I chose to "use the signal
source" the calibration would conclude and the RF gain control and S meter
seemed to operate normally.  When I turned the rig off and then back on, the
RF gain control became nearly inoperable (full CCW would move S meter only
up to S-5).  When I chose "use factory default"  the calibration seemed to
be remembered after restart and the RF gain control worked normally.  I was
using K3 Utility Mac version 1.4.1.8

I remember a similar situation a few years back but a newer version of the
K3 utility addressed it.  Is this a known problem?  I didn't find any recent
posts about it.
