Bill,  

Dale gave a good answer, but did not include how to do it with the KX1.  
I can supply that.  

If you have the KXAT1 installed, pull it out and jumper between pins 1  
and 3 of the 3 pin header next to the BNC jack. That connects the  
antenna with the KXAT1 not in place.  

If you have a wideband noise generator, connect it to the BNC jack - if  
not you can likely use an antenna - tune to a spot where there is only  
band noise and set the RF Gain to max clockwise and the bandwidth to a  
mid-point.  
Select 20 meters and tune CA and CB (marked 20A and 20B on the board)  
for a noise peak. If you cannot discern a peak, try it tuned to a  
moderate strength signal.
